Computers, Teaching, and Mathematical Visualization

3 credits · Undergraduate

In this course, we investigate what it means to conduct mathematical inquiry, both independently and as part of a community. We consider how we communicate about mathematics and examine digital and physical tools that provide visualizations and other representations of mathematical relationships. Students in this course have ample opportunities to do creative mathematics, while developing tools to bring new individuals into the discipline in a way that empowers them to create their own mathematical ideas and see themselves as mathematicians.
