Title: A Smorgasbord of Mathemaitcal Tools for the College Mathematics Instructor
Abstract: A short time ago, a night show host would share his (the staffs) Top Ten List during his show. I also have a list of mathematical stuff (technical term) that will not number 10 that should be shared with other Mathematics Instructors. The following is a short list: synthetic multiplication, Pascal's Triangle, linear regression from matrices, Cubic and Quartic Formulas similar to the Quadratic Formula, a special Trigonometric Identity, and the nth term of an arithmetic sequence. Yep, all this in 20 minutes!
Materials: (TBA)
Presenter(s): Peter Carlson, Anna Cox, Bernard Cunningham, Jeff Morford, Jack Rotman
Time: 2:30pm-2:50pm	Room: J132
Panel: Mathematics Pathways
Abstract: This session will address: Pathways designed to accelerate students' progress from developmental mathematics to a college-level course as replacements for the traditional Pre-algebra/Beginning Algebra/Intermediate Algebra route. Courses that reflect the mathematics pathways described in the Michigan Transfer Agreement. Pathways leading to alternatives to College Algebra that are aligned to targeted programs of study. Panelists: Peter Carlson, Anna Cox, Bernard Cunningham, Jeff Morford, Jack Rotman Organizer: Frances Lichtman
Materials: Math Literacy Without a Math Prerequisite Mathematical Literacy For College Students New Math Pathways
