Active Calculus is different from most existing texts in that: the text is free to read online in .html or via download by users in .pdf format; in the electronic format, graphics are in full color and there are live .html links to java applets; the text is open source, so interested instructor can gain access to the original source files via GitHub; the style of the text requires students to be active learners ... there are very few worked examples in the text, with there instead being 3-4 activities per section that engage students in connecting ideas, solving problems, and developing understanding of key calculus ideas; each section begins with motivating questions, a brief introduction, and a preview activity; each section concludes (in .html) with live WeBWorK exercises for immediate feedback, followed by a few challenging problems.
