From the Publisher

This issue of Focus on Calculus introduces three new teaching tools that dramatically add to your repertoire of electronic resources for calculus. Calculus Live, takes a giant step toward realizing the potential of "electronic books" by offering not just the flexibility of electronic hypertext, but also integrating real Mathematica-based tools for student use.

Wiley Web Tests for Calculus, created at the University of Nebrask, apply the unlimited access and interactivity of the Web to skill building in calculus. Users of any of the new Wiley calculus texts (copyright 1998 and 1999) are eligible for a free site license for this innovative new software.

ODE Architect, can add modeling and simulation tools to the ODE part of your calculus course (as well as your DE course). As publisher, Wiley is proud to support these new initiatives and encourages you to contact your local representative for more information about them.
