Amazing lecturer and good handouts,very clear and easy to follow. Thank you!
-
this video is very useful.
-
I also kind of like the chalk eraser :-)
-
Why does everybody here supposes that teaching Calculus would be a hi fi over the top thing? Why cannot Calculus be taught in a simple manner like this?
-
@mongolcopter these students are probably studying other areas, that don't need rigorous math like literature or history, but these courses are core to the curriculum, so it's kinda mandatory even if they don't need calculus. The reason MIT calls itself a world class university is because these students excel at something else (every student excels at their field(s) of study. so i wouldn't say that MIT is 2 years behind British high schoolers.
-
This would be a business calculus course, designed to provide a basic understanding of the concept. A science major would have taken this in high school.
-
This is the sort of things average British A level students can do with ease towards the end of lower 6th. How can MIT call themselves a world class university if their students are a full 2 years behind British students?
-
.... i didnt learn anything and this made me question everything I already know about calculus. The only thing I knew was the polynomal at the end.... but thats for next class =(

At least he speaks English clearly. Most of my math, computer science, and engineering professors were barely understandable.

If you're a high school student thinking, "Hey, I know this! MIT/university would be a breeze," then snap out of it: Introductory calculus is an equalizer and MIT, as with other universities, use it to ensure students have a foundation. If you're curious about university, look at the course work, not video lectures, of higher-level classes (exams/assignments). If you start university with an artificial confidence from watching YouTube lectures, you'll undoubtedly be crushed by the reality of it.

@Rangers2011WS What about paying a bad ass teacher?
