Three mathematicians within the Purdue University-Indiana University            system will teach three small (25-30 students) prototype calculus               courses based on computer, computer languages and algebra systems.                                                                                              The geometric and conceptual aspects of calculus, solution of applied           problems, and reduction of routine drill by using symbolic manipulation         will be emphasized.  These courses will include both mainstream and             non-mainstream calculus.  The extent of the use of computer labs and            the use of the ISTEL and Maple software packages will vary.                                                                                                     A consulting board of 25 experts from the various academic disciplines          will suggest applications from science and mathematics from the latter          third of the 20th century.                                                                                                                                      A unique component of this project will be research on how students             come to understand or not to understand the underlying ideas in                 calculus.  Theoretical analysis, observations and experiments on the            teaching and learning of calculus will be formulated.                                                                                                           Purdue University will share project costs.
