Volumes of Solids with Known Cross Sections - An Exploration in Calculus
One of the topics that is difficult for students to grasp is finding the volume of a solid with a known cross section. One reason is that students have difficulty with this topic is that they have difficulty drawing the solid. In this activity the students get to build eight different "solids.”This activity focuses on finding the volume of solids that are built on a two-dimensional surface when cross section cut perpendicular to a known shape. The activity uses the region bounded by the x-axis,

This set of 100 cards (25 sets of 4) can be duplicated on card stock and then cut apart for a great cooperative learning activity in Calculus. Duplicate the pages in the landscape mode so the cards are slightly larger. Each set of four cards includes:• a graph of a function, • a graph of a derivative of a function, • a graph of the second derivative of a function, and • an algebraic description of a function.Each of the four cards has been numbered with a random number between 1 and 75. A key

Cubic Project
This is a project designed around a specific property of any cubic polynomial. Students will write equations of tangent lines to a given cubic function and then determine areas of resulting bounded regions. By investigating these areas a perplexing property of cubic polynomials will be discovered. There are two parts to the project. In part one students work with a specific cubic and arrive and specific answers. In part two students solve the problem in general for any cubic. CAS methods are
