I make these notes available with the intent of making it easier to plan and/or take notes from class.
Student facing resources for each topic are all available at vknight.org/gt/.
Write down the derivative from the motivating example of the numerical integration appendix.
\[\frac{dy}{dt}=-gt^2/2+v_0t+y_0\]Pick some random values and slowly step through what the value of the derivative is at each step.
Empirically come up with Euler’s method of integration. Have students provide:
Discuss notes on numerical integration.
Discussion Point: Ask students when it is useful to know how to do this by hand?
