In this program, a jogger’s running speed is calculated using graphs and excellent computer graphics to show the various operations performed. Material includes quadratic formulas, roots of functions, adding constants to functions, derivatives, exponential functions, natural logarithms, and gradient functions. As a visual aid, all of the calculations are accompanied by appropriate movement of lines and curves on the graphs. Produced by the Open University. (24 minutes)

		Visualizing Integration This program defines integration and uses the operations shown to plot the movement and velocity of a car. The use of gradient meters to plot graphs is explained and illustrated. Other material includes constructing parallels, adding constants, deriv...(more details)		DVD $99.95
		Series and e This program takes the idea of a sequence of positive terms and develops it into the concepts of convergent and divergent series. Produced by the Open University. (25 minutes)(more details)		DVD $99.95
		The Intermediate Value Theorem This program uses several models and animation to establish the intermediate value theorem, highlighting the fundamental concepts of continuity and the monotone convergence theorem. Produced by the Open University. (25 minutes)(more details)		DVD $99.95
		Visualizing Complex Numbers This program uses graphs to explore operations with complex numbers. Material presented includes Argand diagrams, roots of functions, polynomials, quadratic and cubic polynomials, and the plotting of roots. All operations are clearly shown with movem...(more details)		DVD $99.95
		Conics in Perspective All conic sections can be found as slices of some cone and are therefore perspectively equivalent. In this program, this result is used to prove an interesting theorem in two-dimensional geometry. Produced by the Open University. (25 minutes)(more details)		DVD $99.95
