DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/ESME/19/">Ma
 nipulative Calculus: Active Learning with 3D Models</a>\nby Stepan Paul (N
 CSU) as part of Online Seminar On Undergraduate Mathematics Education\n\n\
 nAbstract\nManipulative Calculus is a project based at Harvard University 
 focused on developing active learning lessons in calculus courses centered
  around digitally fabricated 3D models. In these lessons\, we put digitall
 y fabricated models into students'\nhands\, and they are asked to make geo
 metric sense of the concepts learned in the course through problems requir
 ing them to handle\, discuss\, and sketch on the models. At this point\, t
 he lessons and models have been in use for several semesters by dozens of 
 instructors and thousands of students. In this talk\, I will give some bac
 kground by describing some of the lessons and accompanying 3D models and t
 hen report on the findings of assessments we've conducted on the project t
 hus far.\n
