A MATLAB-Aided Method For Teaching Calculus-Based Business Mathematics

Abstract: Technology at the University of New Haven, in this paper, we illustrate how to use MATLAB to help students" learning of calculus-based business mathematics and apply the calculus principles to find solutions to real quantitative business problems. Our experience shows that MATLAB greatly saves students" efforts in learning difficult and pure calculus formulas and it is easy for business students to acquire the basic internal functions in using MATLAB.

“…MATLAB software is a high-level programming language in which students implement a range of numerical methods and optimization techniques through group-based projects (team works) to get hands-on experience with modern scientific computing for solving numerical problems (Hanselman & Littlefield, 2012). Several research papers in literature recognize the significance of using MATLAB for solving numerical problems (Costică, 2015;Jebamalar-Leavline & Gnana-Singh, 2014;Jain et al, 2010;Davidovich & Ribakov, 2010;Liang & Pan, 2009). In addition, CMAP software has been selected for constructing and modifying concept maps.…”

“…However, not many studies have been conducted on the use of MATLAB as a pedagogical tool for engineering mathematics. The effectiveness of the conventional lecture method can be greatly improved by integrating MATLAB in teaching and learning of engineering mathematics [5][6][7][8][9][10]. This is because MATLAB provides a powerful interactive and dynamic working environment.…”
