Title: “Making Sense of Calculus and Differential Equations with Mapping Diagrams: A Visual Alternative to Graphs”

Abstract: Mapping diagrams are an important underutilized alternative to graphs for visualizing functions. Starting from basics, Professor Flashman will demonstrate some of his assaults on the challenges of visualizing differential and integral calculus and differential equations using mapping diagrams. Knowledge of at least one semester of calculus will be presumed.
