Teaching Basic Calculus Using SAGE
Abstract
This chapter presents an attempt to review basic calculus concepts to high school students with the help of a Computer Algebra System, namely SAGE. A review lesson on limits and derivatives as well as an introduction of the bisection method for finding roots of continuous functions is presented. The evaluation of the lesson by the students is analyzed. The aim of this chapter is to examine the power of SAGE in reviewing basic calculus concepts, presenting the advantages and disadvantages of SAGE compared to other Computer Algebra Systems, as well as the benefit from using a computer system in making concepts such as the squeeze theorem for computing limits of functions more clear.
