This calculus course covers differentiation and integration of functions of one variable, and concludes with a brief discussion of infinite series. Calculus is fundamental to many scientific disciplines including physics, engineering, and economics. Course Format This course has been designed for independent study. It includes all of the materials you will need to understand the concepts covered in this subject. The materials in this course include:
Lecture Videos with supporting written notes Recitation Videos of problem-solving tips Worked Examples with detailed solutions to sample problems Problem sets with solutions Exams with solutions Interactive Java Applets (“Mathlets”) to reinforce key concepts
Content Development David Jerison Arthur Mattuck Haynes Miller Benjamin Brubaker Jeremy Orloff Heidi Burgiel Christine Breiner David Jordan Joel Lewis About OCW Scholar OCW Scholar courses are designed specifically for OCW’s single largest audience: independent learners. These courses are substantially more complete than typical OCW courses, and include new custom-created content as well as materials repurposed from previously published courses.

This is a project/assignment based on four stories presented regarding teachers during their first year teaching. Most of the content from these stories is applicable to all first year teachers even though these specific teachers were all high school science. I have used these as successful guides for a range of topics pertinent for students preparing to become teachers. The final component, part four, of this project/assignment is a self-reflection which I have used with students completing their student teaching experience. These students were concurrently enrolled in a seminar which served as a nice platform for this. The stories addressed in the worksheet are from a dissertation, chapter four. This dissertation is easily accessed with a link provided in the initial directions of this assignment/project.

Project funded by Foreign Language Assistance Grant, 2007 - 2010 Program Information The Technology Enhanced Elementary Spanish Program (TEESP) was a three-year collaborative effort by ESU #16, ESU #15 and area schools. The program is funded by a FLAP (Foreign Language Assistance Program) grant. Project Information
The project design was developed by a team of high school Spanish teachers. Known as the WLLC team (World Language Learning Community) team these teachers have worked together for several years to improve the teaching strategies in language education for area schools. They have all participated in various professional development opportunities, including Teaching Proficiency through Reading and Storytelling (TPRS) with Susan Gross and Karen Rowan, Comprehensible Input Reading Strategies with Jason Fritze and Literacy Strategies delivered by staff from Nebraska Department of Education, World Languages Department.
