DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/ESME/24/">Re
 shaping the Calculus sequence for Engineering students</a>\nby Gianluca Gu
 adagni (University of Virginia) as part of Online Seminar On Undergraduate
  Mathematics Education\n\n\nAbstract\nThis is the story\, or at least my v
 ersion of it\, of how the Applied Math faculty tried to update the calculu
 s curriculum in our Engineering School to fit departments' requirements an
 d our desire for course innovation\, after decades of stagnation. We desig
 ned three different tracks to map all entering students\, with track selec
 tion based only on their math background. Each track was built on active l
 earning pedagogies with in-class teaching assistants. An online "Math Lab"
  library [this was before Covid] was created throughout the project\, and 
 it was made available to all our students as reference material. The resul
 t was mixed. I will discuss what went well\, just ok\, or bad\, what we le
 arned from the experiment\, and how this is helping us to design new math 
 courses for non-math majors with a focus on DEI.\n
