The textbook, the answer key and the video course
By Dr. Mitch Stokes · Illustrated by Summer Stokes
Everything for one student and one teacher: the hardback textbook with its 600 hand-drawn illustrations, the Exercise Solutions and Answer Key for whoever grades, and the 32 video lessons in which Dr. Stokes teaches the book chapter by chapter. One of the first tangible steps in recent years at reuniting STEM with the liberal arts, so that a student understands the history of math and is better equipped for problems like the current crisis in physics.
Hardback, full colour, 490 pages in 26 chapters, with over 600 of Summer Stokes’s drawings. The course itself: the story of calculus from Thales to Newton, then limits, derivatives and integrals, each taught numerically, geometrically and physically. Study questions and exercises in every chapter.
For whoever grades. The answers to every study question, a worked solution to every exercise, the answer keys for the four exams, and the 32-week and 16-week schedules that pair each chapter with its lesson. Second edition, 212 pages.
Dr. Stokes teaches every chapter at the whiteboard: 32 lessons, 21 hours, the exercises worked by hand. Streams and downloads in the Roman Roads app on any device, yours for life. The first lesson is free to watch.
Dr. Stokes teaches the chapter, 30 to 50 minutes, in the app or on the TV.
Word by word and symbol by symbol; the book is written to be read, not skimmed.
The chapter’s grammar: answer them in writing or out loud, open book, checked against the key.
Every step written out, graded from the worked solutions. An exam after chapters 8, 14 and 20, and a final.
Classical Christian education has repaired the ruins in history, literature and theology, and still teaches mathematics like the rest of America. Calculus for Everyone is the first step at doing for math what has been done for the rest: the history, the philosophy and the mathematics taught as one subject, by a teacher who spent fifteen years finding out that liberal-arts students can learn real calculus, and are delighted when they do.
“If calculus is akin to Hamlet, Euclid is like unto Homer’s Odyssey.” Mitch Stokes, Calculus for Everyone, Preface
Challenge IV families need the textbook; the Exercise Solutions are the tutor’s answer key.
No; it is the three at their own prices, in one order. Buy it for the convenience, or buy the pieces as you need them.
Add more textbooks above. One answer key and one video course serve the household.
One high-school math credit, or one high-school introduction to physics credit, over a year at a chapter a week or a semester at two or three.
Yes. Each student needs a textbook; the video course is licensed by the group. Ask us about group licensing, or look at Kepler Education’s live class.
No. You buy it once and it is yours for life.
