The proposed experiment will ease thecomplexities involved in the learning of calculus students by using experimental centric pedagogy(ECP), which entails providing simple yet relevant experiments that would boost the students’interest in this field. The concepts of differentiation and integration would be practicallydemonstrated to students using Hooke’s law, velocity, acceleration with respect to time, and rulerexperiment. The project would employ readily available utilities to demonstrate integration anddifferentiation

traditional LIWC analysis with the standard dictionarygives a psychologically verified and impartial look at the language, while with the customdictionary it gives a measure of the known signposts for a topic. The MEM analysis gives theemergent themes within the topic.
