Student Presentations:
Jolie Roat - "Polynomial Parametic Curves in Two Dimensions "
Abstract:
In this talk, we will examine polynomial parametric curves in two dimensions
as well as the concept of a±ne
algebraic varieties. In addition, we will explore the relationship between a
polynomial parametric curve and
an a±ne algebraic variety.
Kathryn Gravelle - "Mathematical Literature "
Abstract:
Children's Literature provides a vast collection of stories that can be used
in a variety of Mathematics lessons.
In this talk, we will look at what makes a text a good selection to use for
teaching mathematics and how to
incorporate literature into a mathematics lesson. Of course, we will also look
at a variety of texts that are
good to use in teaching specific areas of mathematics.
