Hello and welcome to Calculus one. 
My name's Jim Fowler and I'm here to help 
you learn calculus. 
But it's not just me, we've got a whole 
bunch of people lined up to help you 
learn. 
Let's go meet some of them now. 
Hi, my name is Bart Snapp. 
I teach at the Ohio State University and 
I am absolutely thrilled to be teaching 
this course. 
My name's Steven Gubkin and I'm really 
excited to be helping with this course. 
Hello, my name is Sean Corey. 
I'm very excited to teach you calculus. 
Those are a few of the companions who'll 
be joining us on our journey through 
calculus. 
And it's going to be a difficult journey. 
One does not simply walk into calculus. 
But to prepare you, we offer four 
resources. 
The first is this, these videos where you 
can watch us do some mathematics. 
Second, a text book where you can read 
the mathematics being done in a bit more 
detail. 
Third nucleus, a website full of calculus 
problems that react to your performance. 
When you get the questions right, it 
gives you harder problems. 
And if you don't know how to do the 
problems, it has hints so you can 
discover the answer. 
But there's a fourth resource we provide. 
And that fourth resource is each other. 
You can't do this by yourself. 
If you're having trouble. 
Post a message to the forum. 
Send us an email, give us a call. 
You're not alone. 
This course isn't just about doing 
calculus problems. 
It's about doing calculus problem in 
fellowship with one another, . 
And so let's get started together.
