MATH 2300 - Mathematical Models, Functions, and Applications

(3) Credit Hours

Lab-based activities designed to strengthen and expand knowledge of topics in secondary mathematics, focusing on topics from precalculus and elementary calculus. Explorations involve the use of multiple representations, transformations, data analysis techniques and interconnections among geometry, probability and algebra. Most labs include significant use of various technologies. The use of quantitative approaches and building relationships between discrete and continuous reasoning are recurrent themes.
