This paper discusses aspects and Grundvorstellungen in the development of concepts of derivative and integral, which are considered central to the teaching of calculus in senior high school. We will focus on perspectives that are relevant when these concepts are first introduced. In the context of a subject matter didactical debate, the ideas are separated into two classes: firstly, more mathematically motivated aspects such as the limit of difference quotients or local linearization within the concept of derivative, as well as the product sum, antiderivative, and measure aspects of integration; secondly, the Grundvorstellungen associated with the concepts of derivative and integral. We consider finding a comprehensive description of aspects and Grundvorstellungen to be an important objective of subject matter didactics. This description should clarify both the differences and the relationships between these perspectives, including both mathematically motivated aspects and Grundvorstellungen which are central to the students' perspective. The primary objectives of this paper include a specification of the concepts of aspects and Grundvorstellungen in the context of differentiation and integration and a discussion of the relationships between the aspects and Grundvorstellungen associated with the concepts of derivative and integral. We begin by presenting the characteristic properties of aspects and Grundvorstellungen, including an account of related concepts and the current state of research. These two concepts are then analyzed, based on a subject matter didactical analysis of the concepts of derivative and integral. We conclude with an account of how these insights can be beneficially exploited for introducing differentiation and integration in real-life environments, within the framework of a theory of concept understanding and subject matter didactics.
