Abstract

This study examines and identifies the problems faced by engineering students in Pakistani universities to learn derivatives and integrations techniques in their first semester calculus course. The study based on data collected from 250 engineering students. In the process of data analyzing students’ misconceptions lie as follows:1) Product and quotient rules of derivatives were applied on integration problems. 2) ln Function was integrated by using derivative techniques. 3) Integrations of trigonometric functions were evaluated by using derivative techniques. 4) Students were found confused in the derivatives and integration using substation techniques. The results of this study will identify the students’ problems and will help them getting clear insight to improving their technology aided learning skills.
