How do I receive the program?
Simply click on the PayPal - Buy Now - button for the
calculator that you own. Next make your secure payment using a
credit card or PayPal account. Programs can be downloaded at any
time. The key will be automatically emailed immediately after
payment is made. Keys for upgrades will be emailed within one day.
For upgrades: Please provide estimated time when software was
purchased originally for verification. Finally, unzip software using
winzip, next use the TI Connect software to transfer the APP to your
calculator, enter key. Total time: 5 min.
How do I use the Calculus Program?
Calculus Made Easy serves primarily three purposes:
1) Calculus problems can be solved step by step. Enter the
function and follow step by step if your homework problem was done
correctly.
2) Calculus concepts can be learned by viewing visual calculator animations.
3) Teachers and students can solve any Calculus problems
immediately. Even complicated problems (i.e. 2nd derivative or
vertical tangent lines of implicitly defined curves or solutions to
differential equations and slope fields, etc...) can be verified
immediately. I used the AP Calculus (AB & BC) Free Response
Questions from 1985 - 2008 as a basis. Literally, any problem can be
solved with the Calculus Made Easy program - an enormous
help !!!
How many of your programs fit onto my
calculator?
All of them. The programs only use RAM memory when being used.
Otherwise, they reside in Flash ROM.
How did your students enjoy the program?
I provided the program to students in all AB and BC Calculus
classes. The students were quite excited when they started using the
program. Some even bought TI-89 calculators as the program allowed
them to a) learn and reinforce Calculus concepts and b) check
answers. During class time, the focus changed from just finding
answers to understanding answers. I feel I come closer to my goal of
providing graphical, analytical and numerical approaches when
solving Calculus problems. For instance, solutions to differential
equations can be found analytically, graphically via slope fields
and numerically via the Euler method. Overall, the AP scores
have increased significantly since using this program. I can
truly say, I am glad I designed the program as it makes teaching
Calculus a lot easier. I use it as a guide through the entire AP
Calculus (AB & BC) curriculum.
User Testimony:
A.C.: "It is the best Calculus program in the world
because it covers everything that is AP Calculus relevant."
L.N.: "It cut down a lot of time on checking answers, it
helped a great deal."
R.R.: "I learned a lot of Calculus by using the
program."
P.W.: "The program makes learning Calculus really easy.
The animations help a great deal. This program was created with a
lot of care."
M.S.: "I am not quite sure how I would have survived AP
Calculus without the program."
How much does Calculus Made Easy cost?
The purchase price is $149.95 for an
individual user, and $999 for a site license.

Country: US Virgin Islands.
Once paid,
email us the Money Transfer Code and your Calculator ID.
We will email you the key as soon as money is ready for pick up.
Can I get a new key for another calculator?
No. Each key purchase is per
calculator only. In case of using a new calculator (due to loss,
theft, malfunctioning, etc) the purchase of a new key is necessary.
What is a Site License?
If the Calculus program is not only used by one person (i.e.
the teacher ) but made accessible to others such as Calculus
students or other teachers within the school, a site license must be
acquired by the school.
How do I run the program?
After installing the Calculus Made Easy APP, hit APPS and
select "Calculus Made Easy".
Does the program show step by step solutions?
Step by Step solutions are shown for Integration and
Differentiation as well as almost all other areas of Calculus. See examples
here:
Is there any documentation?
Yes, there is. Just follow the link: documentation
What Operating System does my TI-89 have to have?
You need 3.10 (Ti89 Titanium and Voyage 200 ) or 2.09 (TI89) (To find your OS select TOOLS on the HOMESCREEN, select option A: ABOUT. You may have to update your OS using
the TI Connect software to be downloaded at http://education.ti.com/us/product/tech/89/software/software.html
.) .
It is a wise idea to always have the latest OS
installed.
Program size of Calculus Made Easy:
Required Memory: 160,000 of RAM and 295,000 of FLASH ROM.
All other programs uses less memory
