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.
