Calculus I Rapid Learning Series is the first of the three-course calculus sequence (I, II & III), designed typically for math, science and engineering majors or anyone who is required to take three semesters of calculus courses in college. This sequence of three courses cover the single variable and multivariable calculus. If you are required to take only one semester of calculus course, go for our College Calculus - RL411. If you are required to take three semesters of calculus courses, you should take our Calculus I, Calculus II and Calculus III, each represents one-semester of contents sequentially.

This Calculus I course includes elementary functions, trigonometry review, concepts of limits, derivatives, integrals and the applications, with the focus on conceptual understanding and problem solving.

With the understanding of the fact that for many students calculus is a difficult subject, we adapt a more gentle and visual approach to calculus concepts. This ensures the learning of calculus is easy and fun, by watching the YouTube like videos and playing interactive drills.

Starting with your basic understanding of functions and graphs, we introduce the concept of limits visually and build the foundation of calculus. For the core units of derivative and integral, we illustrate each concept graphically and demonstrate how to solve each type of calculus problems step by step. We then help to build your critical skills in problem solving, graphing calculators and calculus exam with visualization and examples.

1. 24 Core Concept Tutorials (Flash Movies)
   24x visual tutorials for 24 chapters, with concept map, concept illustration, step-wise problem solving and topical summary, narrated by college calculus professors.
   
2. 24 Problem-Solving Drills (Flash Games)
   24x feedback based Quizzes, concept-based problems, summary reviews on all problems and scoring system to track performance.
   
3. 24 Super Review Cheat Sheets (PDF Printables)
   One cheat sheet per topic, key concepts in a single-sheet, at-a-glance review of each topic and both printable and laminatible Ideal for exam prep quick review.

Pre-requisites for Calculus: (1) Elementary Algebra - RL409 (2) Intermediate Algebra - RL407 (3) Pre-Calculus - RL403.
