Lecture Notes on Slope Fields
Internet Video: *** Matching Slope Fields ***
This video shows good examples of how to do match a slope field to its differential equation and also how to match a slope field with the equation it could represent.
Internet Video: Slope Fields and Differential Equations
This video shows you how to draw a slope field, and then how to solve the differential equation analytically to verify your slope field.
Internet Video: Differential Equation & Slope Field
This is a nice video that shows you how to create a slope field for a Differential Equation and then solve the Differential Equation with both a General Solution and a Unique Solution.

Calculus is the study of change. The ability to change a parameter and immediately see the result can demonstrate that change and how things are related during that change. Many of these concepts are much easier to explain if that change, the motion, can be visually demonstrated in class. Therefore, this is a perfect place for the use of computer animations.

The effects of different values of k on the exponential function f(t)=e^(kt).
As k gets bigger, what is the effect on the graph?
As k gets smaller, what is the effect on the graph?
As k approaches 0, what is the effect on the graph?
The effects of different values of k on the exponential function f(t)=e^(kt).
- If k is positive, the exponential equation models growth.
- If k is negative, the exponential equation models decay.
