3 credits This course introduces students to poetry-its origins, its forms, its artistic process, its elements, and its authors. Students will also reflect on their experiences of poetry then move to an experiential exploration of the elements and forms of poetry with exercises aimed at evoking the poet and poetry-lover within each student. Prerequisite: GLITR 6000.

3.00 Credits
3 credits This course focuses on algebra and algebraic thinking through the investigation of functions of various kinds including linear, exponential, quadratic, cyclical, and inverse. Students will also develop their capacity for mathematical thinking through A collaborative inquiry approach that will involve generating mathematical data, identifying and describing patterns, representing those patterns in A variety of ways, developing mathematical explanations, and using patterns to make predictions. Restrictions for registration: Successful completion of an algebra course or higher-level math course at the undergraduate level.
-
3.00 Credits
3 credits Through interactive activities, students will explore properties of geometric figures and solids and their relationships. They will use geometric language and reasoning to express ideas, justify reasoning, and generate, critique, and support conjectures. They will also study and create geometric proofs. Students will engage with central geometric topic ideas such as symmetry, similarity, trigonometry, and transformational geometry. The course progresses from the visual and intuitive to the formal and includes many real-world context problems. Restrictions for registration: Successful completion of an algebra course or higher-level math course at the undergraduate level.
-
3.00 Credits
3 credits This course deepens students' prior work with the tools and modes of thinking that are specific to the nature of number. Topics include A historical examination of number systems and counting to rational, irrational, and beyond; the mathematical basis of arithmetic operations; and an examination of the role of number sense. Throughout, the course will focus on the understanding and uses of mathematics and A variety of ways to apply the ideas under study.
-
3.00 Credits
3 credits Change is A fundamental fact of our physical universe. In This course, students will explore the underlying structure of change by studying calculus. This course examines the calculus in its conceptual and historical context and introduces its essential topics: functions, limit, continuity, the derivative, and the definite integral. Students will learn about the important procedures of calculus, but much emphasis will also be placed on the meaning behind the procedures and how those procedures can be applied to problems in the real world. Restrictions for registration: Successful completion of an undergraduate pre-calculus or college algebra course or permission of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
3 credits This course explores the tools and modes of thinking that are specific to classical number theory. Topics include prime numbers and divisibility, congruencies, Diophantine equations, Euclid's algorithm, cryptography, and additional topics as time permits. Students will be expected to experiment and formulate conjectures. There will also be an emphasis on learning to write clear and coherent mathematical proofs. Participants will extend their understanding of key ideas through individual and group inquiry, case study analysis, and guided research. Restrictions for registration: Students must have completed 3 credits of college-level mathematics, or permission of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
3 credits This course explores the theory, beauty, scope, relevance, and history of discrete mathematics. Mathematical reasoning, combinatorial analysis, discrete structures, algorithmic thinking, and applications/modeling will be emphasized. Participants will extend their understanding of key ideas of discrete mathematics through problem sets, group inquiry, case study analysis, and guided research. Restrictions for registration: Students must have completed 6 credits of college-level mathematics, or permission of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
3 credits In A world dominated by quantitative information, it is imperative that all citizens be informed of the methods and conclusions of statistics. This course will focus on data analysis through the study of inferential statistics. After A brief review of descriptive statistics and probability, the course will focus on sampling distributions, estimation, and hypothesis testing. Topics include significance tests involving means and proportions, linear and multiple regression, and analysis of variance. Restrictions for registration: Successful completion of an introductory statistics course or permission of instructor.
