Calculus
Chapter 3 - The Derivative
Section 3.1 - Limits
This video is the first part of section 1. (12:15) This describes the idea of a limit looking at graphs and tables.
Part 2 of section 3.1 video #1 - Limits of functions as x approaches a (8:13) Watch this part for class, we will talk about the second video in class.
video #2 - Limits of Functions as x approaches Infinity (11:42) You can, but don't need to watch this. For your reference only.
This is the graph of the first four examples in the notes from part 2 video 1
This graph is for the examples done as x approaches infinity. (worked on in video #2 of part 2)

Section 3.2 - Continuity
We are doing the notes in class. This video of the notes is for your reference later on if you need it.
Answers to HW
Section 3.3 - Rates of Change
We are going to do the notes in class.
This first video discusses the concept for average rate of change and instantaneous rate of change. (9:05)
This second video includes the examples worked through for finding the average and instantaneous rates of change.

Section 3.5 - Graphical Differentiation
Video notes (8:00)
This applet can be very helpful in making the connection between the slope of the tangent line and the y-value of the derivative function.
