MATHE 32400 High School Mathematics from an Advanced Perspective

In this course, students will examine the topics in the high school curriculum through the lens of advanced college level mathematics courses (including Calculus, linear algebra, modern geometry, real analysis, abstract algebra and number theory). Connections between the mathematics taught in high school and college will be stressed, and students will also develop increased understanding of the connections between algebraic, geometric, and logical thinking. Students will be asked to interpret mathematical ideas in contexts and will be expected to communicate effectively about connections they see, representations they create and generalizations they make.
