Essence of calculus, chapter 10 (Taylor series!)
Unknown
A 3Blue1Brown animated video from the Essence of Calculus series showing how Taylor polynomials are built by matching a function's derivatives at a point. Viewers come away understanding why each term appears, how approximations improve with more terms, and what radius of convergence means.

Khan Academy Series & Sequences
Khan Academy's Calculus 2 unit on infinite series, combining short videos with graded practice. It covers convergence and divergence tests, geometric and alternating series, power series, and Taylor and Maclaurin polynomials, so learners can decide whether a series converges and build polynomial approximations of functions.
Calculus II: Sequences and Series
A Johns Hopkins course on Coursera covering sequences and series, Riemann sums, the definite integral, the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, substitution and numerical integration. Learners finish able to approximate and compute integrals and apply them to data-driven modelling problems after a first differential calculus course.
Introduction to Real Analysis
A standard undergraduate textbook building real analysis from the completeness of the reals through sequences, limits, continuity, differentiation, and the Riemann integral. Its graded exercises train students to construct epsilon-delta proofs independently.
