I Am Calculus
Level-up just in time for Math 105 and 115.
About the Project
I Am Calculus is a suite of learning tools developed by students in the M-Sci program at the University of Michigan. In the free I Am Calculus app, users answer questions written by students studying the 105/115 content and gain points and titles for their characters.
Users can also tackle tough 105 and 115 problems with I Am Calculus's for-the-students, by-the-students Tutorial pages that walk them through tricky concepts. Lastly, I Am Calculus has some fun calculus-themed browser games to make studying calculus even more exciting.
The App
Our app features questions written by students about key concepts needed for later success in calculus. You can download I Am Calculus in the Apple Store or in the Google Play Store at the below links:
