Interdepartmental 301
Here is the full syllabus.
Here's my single favourite .
Here you may find a place to leave about the course.
Here is a .
Eventually there may be samples of final projects that aren't on
sections that you'll be doing on the final
project page.
Here is a short proof of the rational root
theorem.
A nice discussion of the .
Here are some materials for calculus that are
designed for middle school teachers. It's an interesting
point of view.
And, similarly, materials on probability and
statistics for middle school teachers. And some more statistics (mostly concerning regression
in one form or another).
The New York State regents exams you will be required to complete
may be found , from
which you may select a wide variety of historical mathematics exams.
One of your classmates found particularly interesting (from 1866).
This is the old .
It provides a good summary of the mathematics that you will need to
know. Pay particular attention to pages 7 - 14 - ***This is
where your topic list for extra topics is***. . Of course you should be aware of
the new, but it is worth noticing that they aren't that
different. For our purposes the topic division of the old is
easier to work with.

Even more fun than Anscombe's quartet is the .
