This calculus video tutorial explains how to find the absolute minimum and maximum values as well as the local max and local min. It explains the extreme value theorem for finding absolute extrema and discusses the first derivative test to identify relative maximum and minimum values using a sign chart on a number line. It also discusses how to find the critical points or critical numbers of a function. This video contains plenty of examples and difficult / hard practice problems.
