The NCTM standards for courses designed to prepare students for the “new calculus” include using “all appropriate calculator and computer technologies,” as well as promoting “the use of experimentation and conjecturing” (NCTM 2000, p. 289). Both these goals can be met in the following experiment to find the area under a curve. The experiment is a modification of a classroom exercise that I conducted in an introductory college calculus course for nonmajors.

In this paper, some important properties concerning the κ-Hilfer fractional derivative are discussed. Integral transforms for these operators are derived as particular cases of the Jafari transform. These integral transforms are used to derive a fractional version of the fundamental theorem of calculus. Keywords: Integral transforms, Jafari transform, κ-gamma function, κ-beta function, κ-Hilfer fractional derivative, κ-Riesz fractional derivative, κ-fractional operators.
