Math Education
Colloquium Series
@ Suffolk University
Boston

Celebrating Our 12th Year
of Teaching On-Line

Suffolk University is one of the major universities in Boston, featuring its internationally respected Law School, School of Management, and College of Arts and Sciences

Suffolk University is
fully accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC)

All Distance Calculus Courses
are offered through the
Mathematics &
Computer Science Department
at Suffolk University.

   
Software

For all Year 1 Calculus courses, we use the graphically-based LiveMath™ Maker computer algebra and graphing system.

Complete Algebraic Operations via "Drag and Drop" Tactile Actions!


Feel the math. Pick up math expressions, drag them to other objects, the drop - contextual math operations do the rest! A GREAT teaching tool!

 
Graphing Power with Speed and Ease of Use


Make and customize and add to 2D and 3D graphs, without knowing "the syntax" to do what you want, when you want. Pick up graphs: move them, spin them, zoom-in, zoom-out.

Mathematica™

For all Year 2 Calculus courses, we use the programming-language-based Mathematica™ computer algebra and graphing system by Wolfram Research

Mathematica is a very powerful computer algebra engine, used by professional engineers and mathematicians to work on research-level mathematical computations.
