OK, here's a little explanation then:
I'm running a new course this year for the first time that uses SAGE in
a computer lab setting to investigate topics in Calculus. I wanted to
call it "Scientific Computing Lab" but the powers-that-be morphed into
"Calculus Research Lab." This Lab meets every other day (like a science
lab) in addition to the students' AP Calculus class at my High School.
We just started using this text,
http://wdjoyner.com/teach/calc2-sage/hoffman-stein-calculus.pdf
On p19 we start reading about using python functions to do Riemann
Sums. So, I thought I'd show the students a little about lists and sums
in python using SAGE. This is how far we got,
https://sage.math.clemson.edu:34567/home/pub/297
I wonder if anyone else is using SAGE with their Calculus I and II
students and what you do.

Would including a direct link to a published worksheet like this:
https://sage.math.clemson.edu:34567/home/pub/297
be appropriate then?
I personally find the above link (and some explanation) to be very
appropriate for this list.
Many thanks for your consideration and thought,
William
I publish some of the worksheets my students and I
complete in class so I can link to them on my blog or on edmodo for
students
who are absent or for later reference:
