. Some researchers even argue against the necessityof many calculus concepts for success in later engineering courses. Consequently, manyinstitutions are seeking to redefine and improve calculus experiences to retain engineeringstudents. Indeed, a growing body of literature discusses innovations in calculus content,pedagogy, and/or course formats. A comprehensive review of prior efforts to improve calculuscourses is needed to synthesize the effectiveness of available intervention models, as well asidentify areas of needed work.A systematic review of ASEE conference proceedings was conducted to identify models forpromoting success in undergraduate calculus courses. First, a search of the ASEE PEERdatabase for articles with “calculus” in the title
