The C&amp;M courseware was born out of the early calculus reform movement, which coincidently coincided with the launch of the powerful computer algebra system, Mathematica. This talk will discuss the authors’ thoughts on teaching calculus, and how NetMath has partnered with MSTE over the past 25 years.</p></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-date field-type-datetime field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Date:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><span class="date-display-single" property="dc:date" datatype="xsd:dateTime" content="2018-04-20T12:00:00-05:00">Friday, April 20, 2018 - 12:00</span></div></div></div><div class='webform-container-closed'><h2>RSVP</h2><div id='rsvpDate'>April 20, 2018</div><div>We're sorry, but RSVPs for this event are closed.

He was visiting with parents whose students were starting at UIUC. They began to describe a way to make a local phone call on their TRS80 home computer that would allow them to use their computer to send a letter to their student at UIUC - free of charge, much less than the cost of a LONG DISTANCE PHONE CALL. They called this "thing" electronic mail. Everyone in the room shook their head and asked, "Why?" and the overwhelming answer was, "Who knows?".  Electronic mail was about as useless as "Pong."</p></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-date field-type-datetime field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Date:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><span class="date-display-single" property="dc:date" datatype="xsd:dateTime" content="2018-04-06T12:00:00-05:00">Friday, April 6, 2018 - 12:00</span></div></div></div><div class='webform-container-closed'><h2>RSVP</h2><div id='rsvpDate'>April 6, 2018</div><div>We're sorry, but RSVPs for this event are closed.
