[quote=Anonymous]If you read the article, these students in the new course take the same exams and finals as the regular calc class. This hardly seems the end of western civilization. Frankly, calculus principles aren’t very hard to learn. The power rule and the chain rule are very straight forward to apply. The only thing that makes calculus difficult is the imbedded algebra and trig. That’s where 90%+ of the mistakes are made. If you didn’t have an excellent algebra teacher I can see how there would be gaps. That plus the covid years, it makes sense they would supplement with algebra training. Why all the pearl clutching?[/quote]
