SESSION 1

Differentiation: definition and basic derivative rules

Sun 6:00 PM - 7:15 PM UTCSep 8, 6:00 PM - 7:15 PM UTC

Today we'll jump right in and start learning about what a derivative is, and connecting it to Limits and other foundational math concepts.

SESSION 2

Differentiation: definition and basic derivative rules

Sat 6:00 PM - 7:15 PM UTCSep 14, 6:00 PM - 7:15 PM UTC

Today we will look at differentiability, which is whether or not a function even has a derivative. This concept eventually ties into theorems later in AP Calc that have a big part in the AP exam.

SESSION 3

Differentiation: definition and basic derivative rules

Sun 6:00 PM - 7:15 PM UTCSep 15, 6:00 PM - 7:15 PM UTC

Today we learn the most foundational derivative rule: The power rule
﻿
We will apply the power rule in many different cases to see how derivatives can work
