Calculus 3 students reinvented the definition of directional derivative in their groups. Afterwards the students compare their different definitions in a whole class discussion. Trying to resolve the disagreement creates energy and curiosity in the classroom.
The class had 25 students and met two times a week for 75 minutes each and one time for 50 minutes.
