Midpoint versus Trapezoidal Sums

This resource has been marked as outstanding by a GeoGebra moderator.

A way to lead students to see NUMERICALLY why Midpoint Riemann Sums are a better approximation than the Trapezoidal Sum. It can lead to an interesting discussion on why GRAPHICALLY the MRS are better than the TS.
