The Mathematics Department at Rhode Island College is offering a graduate Math course this summer called MATH 550 – Topics in Mathematics. A Second Look at Secondary Mathematics. This course is a review of topics covered in high school mathematics from an advanced perspective. It will cover some of the most fundamental and important results from RIDE’s six conceptual categories: number/quantity, algebra, functions, modeling, geometry and probability/statistics. This course is of particular interest to high school teachers and community college instructors interested in deepening their conceptual understanding of the secondary-level mathematics leading up to calculus. Prerequisite: Undergraduate degree in mathematics or related field.
