Calculus is a fascinating and essential subject, rich both in elegant ideas and practical applications, yet too many students perceive it as dry, or opaque, or a hurdle to be overcome en route to pursuing other goals. In this talk, mathematician Dr. Jan Cannizzo will diagnose the problems that plague the typical calculus classroom and discuss what can be done to make calculus come to life in the minds of those who study it.
