In the Introduction to the Derivative video we introduce the notion of the derivative of a function and explain how the derivative captures the instantaneous rate of change of a function. In the ...

A PHASE relation familiar to students of applied mathematics exists between a simple harmonic oscillation and its derivative. Similar relations exist between exponential functions and their ...

Exponential and logarithmic functions are typically presented as formulas with which students learn to associate the rules for exponents/logarithms, a particular algebraic form, and routine algorithms ...
