Calculus
Fall 2020


Note on the Text

Image for textbook The Calculus text you will use depends on the professor that is teaching the course. For the Fall 2020 semester, all Math 125 students will be using the Stewart text below. (For the other Calc courses, please check with the instructor!).

If you're buying this on your own: Caution! The publisher has many versions of this book, and only a few will work for this class. We teach using the "Early Transcendentals" textbooks, and in the 7th edition, there is: (1) the full, main textbook (which is the first link below, and could be used in all three semesters here at Whitman, although several professors use free editions of other texts), (2) The single-variable version of the full textbook (Chapters 1-11, or the equivalent of Calc I and II) can be used if you're definitely not taking Calc III.

NOTE: Of the other versions out there, do NOT buy the text with HYBRID written across the front- It doesn't have any section exercises! (You have to purchase additional online access).

Here are links to texts that are OK (In particular, note the ISBN numbers

How Will I Upload Materials to Canvas?

There are several apps for cell phones to convert images of your work to PDF, which you can then upload to Canvas. Below, Prof. Schueller demonstrates one such app, Adobe Scan. Unfortunately, you will be asked to set up an account, but otherwise it seems like a good app (if you want to use other apps, that's fine, too- but please upload files as PDF).
