Description

Calculus hasn’t changed, but your students have. Many of today’s students have seen calculus before at the high school level. However, professors report nationwide that students come into their calculus courses with weak backgrounds in algebra and trigonometry, two areas of knowledge vital to the mastery of calculus. Thomas’ Calculus Early Transcendentals, Media Upgrade, Eleventh Edition responds to the needs of today’s students by developing their conceptual understanding while maintaining a rigor appropriate to the calculus course.

Thomas’ Calculus Early Transcendentals, Media Upgrade, Eleventh Edition is now available with an enhanced MyMathLab^™ course—the ultimate homework, tutorial and study solution for today’s students. The enhanced MyMathLab^™ course includes a rich and flexible set of course materials and features innovative Java^™ Applets, Group Projects, and new MathXL^® exercises. This text is also available with WebAssign^® and WeBWorK^®.

Features

Strong Examples and Exercise Sets encourage students to think clearly about the problems and reinforcing their mathematical intuition.
Exceptional Art Captions and Multi-figured Images provide insight for students and support conceptual reasoning.
Strong Multivariable Coverage helps students progress from single variable to multivariable calculus.
Flexible Table of Contents that divides complex topics into smaller sections and provides instructors with flexibility in creating course outlines.

New To This Edition

Enhanced MyMathLab^™for the Thomas’ Calculus Series. MyMathLab^™ is a series of text-specific, easily customizable online courses for Addison-Wesley textbooks in mathematics. MyMathLab^™ provides a rich and flexible set of course materials, featuring free-response exercises that are algorithmically generated for unlimited practice and mastery. Instructors can use the homework and test managers to select and assign online exercises correlated directly to the textbook, and they can import TestGen^® tests into MyMathLab for added flexibility. The enhancements for the media edition of Thomas include:

New Java^™ Applets allow students to interact with three-dimensional visualizations of multivariable calculus problems. These exploratory questions help students visualize and experiment with abstract concepts. The pedagogical links tie the applets directly to the content of the book, and are available with every section of the multivariable chapters.
Group Projects are new applied problems that can be used in the in the classroom or assigned to students working in teams. As students work through these projects, they learn how to generalize essential concepts by using calculus to creatively solve challenging real world problems.
New MathXL^® Exercises expand on the already impressive array of problem sets in the text, giving students greater opportunities to practice solving problems. The new MathXL exercises include:

Precalculus Review Exercises to help students strengthen their algebra and trigonometry skills.
Routine, Mid-level, and Advanced Exercises to help build students’ mathematical intuition and conceptual understanding.
