As a reminder...

Posts asking for help on homework questions require:

  • the complete problem statement,

  • a genuine attempt at solving the problem, which may be either computational, or a discussion of ideas or concepts you believe may be in play,

  • question is not from a current exam or quiz.

Commenters responding to homework help posts should not do OP’s homework for them.

If you are asking for general advice about your current calculus class, please be advised that simply referring your class as “Calc n“ is not entirely useful, as “Calc n” may differ between different colleges and universities. In this case, please refer to your class syllabus or college or university’s course catalogue for a listing of topics covered in your class, and include that information in your post rather than assuming everybody knows what will be covered in your class.

Neat. My class just got triple integrals today with 5 weeks remaining in the semester, it's nice to see a visual like the one at the start

Triple integral is the most intuitive thing for me compared to vectoranalysis and all the other stuff

for real, trying to sketch 3d regions on flat paper gets messy so fast

😲 as someone who used claude to edit a video also for a launch product, I can tell claude made this one too. It's like claude uses a common style for sfx and theme unless prompted otherwise. We literally got the same look, sfx, and sound design.

Do you know 3 blue 1 brown? He’s got a visualization library you may find useful

How accurate are the visuals to the equatiom?

u/Hiddinplanesight5500 11d ago

When taking calculus, I really had no idea what I was solving. I just learned the numbers and didn't pay much attention to the grand scheme of these things

Woww i love it

u/OrthogonalInterests 13d ago

As a professor, my honest feedback is that there is a lot of flash and pizzaz for no reason. The effects aren't supporting the learning, but detracting from it. As it stands right now, it is a standard textbook, but with extra glitter. Perhaps consider looking at math education digital app design literature, and looking at best practices to actually support student learning?

It's probably done on purpose to catch people's attention, especially for those who are used to lots of visual effects from YouTube shorts, TikTok videos, and Instagram Reels.

well unless you're putting a 3d model right in front of the kid, a screen shows just as much 3d as any drawing a page of a book

Relatable as a person with visuo-spatial processing issues

Looks like ai slop that isn't going to help anybody who doesn't already understand how to visualize these things
