If you don't get it the first time, or the second or the third or the fourth - fear not. Professor Burger is always interesting and fun to listen to. And eventually you'll get it!

You have reached me!

excellent - getting an A in calculus (because I watch these videos) I may be speaking for myself but I almost literally never go to class and yet feel so motivated by these videos that I often spend time outside of class and outside of these videos, thinking about about calculus! May sound far fetched but watch Prof Burgers videos and I bet you find yourself doing the same thing! Thanks Professor for the excellent instruction!

Great overview of derivatives!

In school it was really hard for me to learn how to find integrals or derivatives. Trig is hard! Especially when you're working with derivatives and trig functions. I like Professor Burger's teaching style. He's really easy to follow.

Good lesson

Professor Burger helps you find a formula to find the antiderivative. I found this lesson to be a little bit more confusing but I thin it might be because explaining the antiderivatives of powers of x are more difficult than most math problems. He always does a great job explaining the meaning of each term and gives great formulas to answer the problem.

Below are the descriptions for each of the lessons included in the series:

• Calculus: Antidifferentiation

  This lesson is an introduction to integration and antiderivatives. Where calculus begins with differential calculus (studying about derivatives), this is the beginning of the next portion of calculus in which we learn how to undo derivatives or anti-differentiate. Antidifferentiation is the process by which we look at a function and determine what function it was before it was differentiated. To this end, Professor Burger will show you how to use the derivative formulas in reverse.

  This lesson is perfect for review for a CLEP test, mid-term, final, summer school, or personal growth!

• Calculus: Antiderivatives of Powers of x

  This lesson is a more advanced view of antidifferentiation and integration. In it, you will be introduced to the proper notation for denoting an integral or antiderivative and you will also be introduced to the power rule for integration and some properties of indefinite integrals. You will also learn several rules about antiderivatives or integrals. If a function has an antiderivative, it has an infinite number of antiderivatives, and the properties of antidifferentiation mirror those of differentiation. Professor Burger will go over some of these properties, including the constant multiple rule for integration and the sum rule for integration.

• Calculus: Integrals of Trig and Exponent Functions

  This lesson will teach you how to approach and solve problems involving antiderivatives and integration for trigonometric functions and exponential functions. To do this, we will review the power rule, the trig derivatives and some exponential derivatives. Professor Burger will go through integration problems involving functions such as sin, cos, tan, sec, cot, csc, e^x, a^x, ln a, etc. To attack these problems, you will break down the integration/antidifferentiation problems into component parts and apply the laws of integration to arrive at the correct solution.

• Calculus: Undoing the Chain Rule

  In this video, you will learn to do integration by substitution, which is a fancy way of saying that we'll learn to solve integration problems by undoing the chain rule, which is a fundamental technique we should know from differentiation. Since integration (antidifferentiation) and differentiation are inverse operations, we see many of the same patterns in integrals that we do with derivatives. Professor Burger will show you how to recognize integral problems that you may be able to solve by untangling the chain rule.

• Calculus: Integrating Polynomials by Substitution

  This lesson will teach you how to do integration of polynomials using substitution. Before digging in on substitution in antidifferentiation, Professor Burger will review notation associated with differentiation and antidifferentation (with respect to x). Next, he will move on to teach you integration by substitution, a technique that is helpful for finding the antiderivative of a composite function. While running through the chain rule backwards, he will highlight several rules and properties of antidifferentiation; for instance, the integral of a product is not necessarily equal to the product of the integrals. He also gives us advice on what expressions to select and replace with a constant when using substitution as a method of integration. To illustrate all of this, you will find the integral of 42x(x^2+4)^20 dx as well as the integral of this expression that contains radicals 2x^2*(5+x^3)^(1/2)dx.

• Calculus: Substitution to Integrate Trig Functions

  In this lesson, we will work on solving antidifferentiation problems involving composite trigonometric functions using the substitution method to solve for the integral. A composite function is a function that results from applying one function first and then another (e.g. f(g(x))). When these involve trig functions, they look like: find the antiderivative (or integral) of (2x+1)*sin(x^2+x)dx. After using substitution, if you end up with the du-expression being off by a factor of a constant, remember that you can take that constant multiple out of the integral (because of the constant multiple rule of integration and antidifferentiation). Additionally, this lesson will cover the integration of composite functions that involve the trigonometric function secant (in addition to other, more basic, trig functions).

• Calculus: Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, Part I

  In this lesson, you will learn how the derivative and the integral are related. This is the first part of the fundamental theorem of calculus; it asserts that differentiation is 'undone' by integration. It also means that the rate of change of the area under the graph of a function with respect to x is equal to the value of the original function at x. In addition to explaining the theorem and the implications of it, Professor Burger will also walk you through a proof of sorts that explains why the theorem is true.
