Take An Online Calculus Class

An online calculus class allows you to cover the course material at your own pace rather than at a pace the instructor chooses. Other benefits include starting the course at a time other than the traditional semester start times, no set class schedule and one-on-one interaction with an instructor, which may not be available in a large classroom setting.


Instructions


1. Sign up for Extended Learning at San Francisco State University and register for Online Calculus. Take the self-test to be accepted into the class. After being accepted, you will have access to a forum the instructor monitors, making this course fully interactive. Complete the course and transfer the credit to your school.


2. Take Distance Calculus through Shorter University. Start the course any time and go at your own pace; the course is based on a 14-week class, but you can finish sooner, if desired, or take up to eight months to complete the coursework. Start the course as soon as you register online.


3. Complete the the calculus coursework available through MIT's OpenCourseWare program. This is not an online calculus class, but rather the program allows you access to MIT course materials. You won't receive credit for completing the course work, but you can still learn calculus just as MIT students do through access to lectures, notes, assignments and exams.
