Purdue University Kids STEM Degree
Each of the Purdue University K-12 STEM Degrees consists of 10 videos (3-5 minutes) with an assessment for each video.
Students will have the option to complete a quiz (Google Form) at the end of each video where they will earn a code. Collect all 10 codes and enter them in the form at the bottom of each page to get your STEM certificate for that degree.
This program can be completed individually by students, or together as a class.

In order to utilize calculus to its full potential and apply it to real world problems, one needs a good understanding of differentiation. This course covers how to differentiate functions which commonly appear within engineering and the sciences, the rules of differentiation, as well as how to use these ideas to solve related rates problems. The Understanding Differentiation series is taught by the Purdue University Department of Mathematics's Dr. Daniel Johnstone. Click here to go to the Understanding Differentiation page.
