Calculus Revisited: Multivariable Calculus

Calculus Revisited: Multivariable Calculus (Res.18-007, MIT OCW). This consists of 26 video lectures taught by Professor Herbert Gross, on a study of the calculus of functions of several variables (vector arithmetic and vector calculus). Calculus Revisited is a series of videos and related resources that covers the materials normally found in freshman- and sophomore-level introductory mathematics courses. Multivariable Calculus is the second course in the series, consisting of 26 videos, 4 Study Guides, and a set of Supplementary Notes. The series was first released in 1971 as a way for people to review the essentials of calculus. It is equally valuable for students who are learning calculus for the first time. (from ocw.mit.edu)

Part V, Lecture 3 - Multiple Integration and the Jacobian

Herb Gross illustrates how the Jacobian arises when changing coordinates in order to calculate a double integral.
