Features
SUPPORTED IN ACHIEVE
Achieve is the culmination of years of development work put toward creating the most powerful online learning tool for calculus students. It houses all of our renowned assessments, multimedia assets, e-books, and instructor resources in a powerful new platform.
Achieve supports educators and students throughout the full range of instruction, including assets suitable for pre-class preparation, in-class active learning, and post-class study and assessment. The pairing of a powerful new platform with outstanding calculus content provides an unrivalled learning experience.
Highlights include:
- A design guided by learning science research. Co-designed through extensive collaboration and testing by both students and faculty including two levels of Institutional Review Board approval for every study of Achieve. Iterative improvement and updates are continuous and frequent based on user feedback.
- A learning path of powerful content including pre-class, in-class, and post-class activities and assessments.
- A detailed gradebook with insights for just-in-time teaching and reporting on student achievement by learning objective.
- Easy integration and gradebook sync with iClicker classroom engagement solutions.
- Simple integration with your campus LMS and availability through Inclusive Access programs.
Features of this Edition Include:
Conceptual Insights encourage students to develop a conceptual understanding of calculus by explaining important ideas clearly but informally.
Graphical Insights enhance students’ visual understanding by making the crucial connections between graphical properties and the underlying concepts.
Reminders are margin notes that link the current discussion to important concepts introduced earlier in the text to give students a quick review and make connections with related ideas.
Caution notes warn students of common pitfalls they may encounter in understanding the material. Examples work through problems to instruct students on concepts. They contain full, stepped-out solutions for each part.
Historical Perspectives are brief vignettes that place key discoveries and conceptual advances in their historical context. They give students a glimpse into some of the accomplishments of great mathematicians and an appreciation for their significance.
Assumptions Matter uses short explanations and well-chosen counterexamples to help students appreciate why hypotheses are needed in theorems.
Section Summaries summarize a section’s key points in a concise and useful way and emphasize for students what is most important in each section.
Section Exercise Sets offer a comprehensive set of exercises closely coordinated with the text. These exercises vary in difficulty from routine, to moderate, to more challenging.
Chapter Review Exercises offer a comprehensive set of exercises closely coordinated with the chapter material to provide additional problems for self-study or assignments.
New to This Edition
ACHIEVE FOR CALCULUS
Achieve focuses on engaging students through pre-class and post-class assessment, interactive activities, and a full e-book. Achieve is a complete learning environment with easy course setup, gradebook, and LMS integration.
- Homework: Achieves proprietary grading algorithm combines our homegrown parser and the computer algebra system, SymPy, to accept every valid equivalent answer and to trigger warnings for answers entered in an incorrect format. Detailed, error-specific feedback, and fully worked solutions provide in-question guidance for students as they solve. Homework is easy to format for students by using our intuitive Math Palette, and it is easy to edit for instructors using Macmillans built-in question editor.
- Guided Learn and Practice assignments include interactive content, videos, and instructional feedback to prepare students before they come to class.
- CalcClips tutorial videos are integrated throughout the e-book and available in pre-built Guided Learn & Practice assignments meant for formative exercise exploration.
- Dynamic Figures, powered by Desmos, take students experience further with conceptual and computational questions about the interactive Dynamic Figures. These book-specific figures are embedded directly in the e-book and included with assessment in pre-built Guided Learn & Practice assignments.
- LearningCurve adaptive quizzing offers individualized question sets and feedback for each student based on his or her correct and incorrect responses.
New in Achieve for 2023:
Over 100 Desmos-powered Graded Graph exercises, which allow students to manipulate points and functions on an autograded graph, are available in the question bank.
Video feedback, embedded within the feedback tab of homework exercises, is available for 250 of the most frequently assigned questions, providing brief step-by-step tutorial videos to guide students toward the correct answer.
A new video index is available in the Resources tab, linking to correlated videos from the popular Patrick JMT YouTube channel.
New question types inspired by generative AI tools encourage students to identify the error and think conceptually to recognize the mistaken step. These 100+ new exercises, marked with "(ITC)" in the question bank, provide an opportunity to show mastery of the entire problem, instead of simply finding the final correct answer.
Chapter-level adaptive quizzes are now available as an end of chapter study tool, in addition to existing section-level adaptive quizzes.

*General themes of the revision include the following (a detailed list of changes available):*
- Rewrite portions to increase readability without reducing the level of mathematical rigor. This includes increasing clarity, improving organization, and building consistency.
- Add applications, particularly in life science and earth science to broaden the scientific fields represented in the book. In particular, there are a number of new examples and exercises in climate science, an area that is currently drawing a lot of interest in the scientific community.
- Add conceptual and graphical insights to assist student understanding in places where pitfalls and confusion often occurs.
- Add diversity to the Historical Perspectives and historical marginal pieces.
- Maintain threads throughout the book by previewing topics that come up later and revisiting topics that have been presented before.
- Expand the perspective on curve sketching--beyond just sketching a curve using calculus tools--to include analyzing given curves using calculus tools. (This is an addition of some elements of the “reform” perspective on calculus instruction.)
- “Tighten” the presentation of the mathematics in the text, improving rigor (without increasing the overall level of formality). This includes correcting previous errors and omissions.

Jon Rogawski
Jon Rogawski received his undergraduate and master’s degrees in mathematics simultaneously from Yale University, and he earned his PhD in mathematics from Princeton University, where he studied under Robert Langlands. Before joining the Department of Mathematics at UCLA in 1986, where he was a full professor, he held teaching and visiting positions at the Institute for Advanced Study, the University of Bonn, and the University of Paris at Jussieu and Orsay. Jon’s areas of interest were number theory, automorphic forms, and harmonic analysis on semisimple groups. He published numerous research articles in leading mathematics journals, including the research monograph Automorphic Representations of Unitary Groups in Three Variables (Princeton University Press). He was the recipient of a Sloan Fellowship and an editor of the Pacific Journal of Mathematics and the Transactions of the AMS. As a successful teacher for more than 30 years, Jon Rogawski listened and learned much from his own students. These valuable lessons made an impact on his thinking, his writing, and his shaping of a calculus text. Sadly, Jon Rogawski passed away in September 2011. Jon’s commitment to presenting the beauty of calculus and the important role it plays in students’ understanding of the wider world is the legacy that lives on in each new edition of Calculus.
