- Math Market Integration Review - Student buy questions from the market and sell solutions back for a profit. A fun activity to review of a variety of techniques of integration including substitution and integration by parts.
- Six Pictures, Four Concepts from Jonathan Claydon - Jonathan tackles the abstract idea of integration and computing areas geometrically using six carefully chosen pictures of graphs.
- Rowing Machine Areas - Ask students to record data from a rowing machine (this could also be done with other exercise equipment such as a treadmill or stationary bicycle). Record the speed every 10 seconds for 2 minutes. Then graph speed-time and calculate the distance using Riemann sums. Students can check to see if they calculated the same answer as the digital readout gave for distance.

- Estimating Areas from Heather Kohn - Heather asks "Which shape has the bigger area? If you were a calculus student, which tool would you choose to explore this?" She used this activity to talk about "What is Calculus?" and ideas of accumulation and integration. Would quarters or dimes be a better/more accurate tool? What about really small circles like beads? As the item gets smaller (towards infinity), you can get a more accurate area. This idea was based on Which One Has a Bigger Area? from Mark Chubb.
