 Distance Calculus at Suffolk University
Distance Calculus at Suffolk University is led by Dr. Robert Curtis, a member of the faculty of the Mathematics and Computer Science Department at Suffolk University since 1996.
The Distance Calculus program at Suffolk University was founded in 1997 with one of the collaborators of the original Ohio State program.
Distance Calculus is operated by a team of educators through MathMonkeys, LLC, publishers of LiveMath and MathEQ software, based in Harvard Square, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA.

 Pre-Calculus
Calculus is the branch of mathmatics that deals with a functions rate of change with respect to another, the slope of a curve at a prescribed point, the computation of the maximum and minimum values of functions, and the calculation of the area bounded by curves.
It familiarizes with students with the basics of calculus such as functions, derivitives, anti-derivitives, and limits

 Calculus history
In fact, although Barrow never explicitly stated the fundamental theorem of the calculus, he was working towards the result and Newton was to continue with this direction and state the Fundamental Theorem of the Calculus explicitly.
After Newton and Leibniz the development of the calculus was continued by Jacob Bernoulli and Johann Bernoulli.
His results on the integral calculus were published in 1684 and 1686 under the name ' calculus summatorius ', the name integral calculus was suggested by Jacob Bernoulli in 1690.

 Arithmetic to Algebra through Pre-Calculus; Mathematics Texts for High School and College
It was determined that 30 Units (Chapters) would be required to adequately cover the mathematics from Arithmetic to Pre-Calculus to prepare a student sufficiently to enroll and pass Calculus or another university level mathematics course.
It was determined that 30 Units (Chapters) would be required to adequately cover the mathematics from Arithmetic to Pre-Calculus to prepare a student sufficiently to enroll and pass a university level Calculus course.
The 30 Units were developed from a survey of university faculty of the least understood critical topics which professors expected students to know before they attempted to enroll in calculus.
