Calculus AB is designed to be taught over a full high school academic year. It is possible to spend some time on elementary functions and still cover the Calculus AB curriculum within a year. However, if students are to be adequately prepared for the Calculus AB examination, most of the year must be devoted to topics in differential and integral calculus. These topics are the focus of the AP Exam. (College Board)
Calculus is the study of rates of change and was developed by Isaac Newton and Gottfried Leibniz in the later half of the seventeenth century. Differential calculus determines the rate of change of a quantity. Integral calculus finds the quantity where the rate of change is known.
