Math 239:
Intro to Mathematical Proof

The course will provide an introduction to the language of advanced mathematics and to mathematical proof. It will emphasize rigorous argument and the practice of proof in various mathematical contexts. Topics will include logic, set theory, cardinality, methods of proof, and induction. Other mathematical topics chosen at the discretion of the instructor will be included as material through which proving skills will be honed. Prerequisites: MATH 222 or permission of the department. Offered every semester

Math 335:
Foundations of Geometry

This course presents an investigation of the axiomatic foundations for several approaches to the study of modern geometry. Euclidean geometry, geometric transformations, and non-Euclidean geometries will be discussed. Prerequisites: MATH 222 and MATH 239. Offeed every spring

INTD* 302:
Methods&Matls in Sec Ed:Math

The purpose of this course is to prepare preservice teacher of mathematics for the student teaching internship. Throughout this course, discussions will center on methods of planning, teaching, evaluating and managing mathematics classes. In addition, the theme Professionalism will be emphasized. Students in INTD 302 are expected to demonstrate a maturity and dedication to secondary mathematics prior to being assigned a student teaching placement. Consideration will be given to the pedagogical implications of instruction in reading, writing, listening, and speaking in the content area as well as strategies for modifying content for use with students having special needs. Prerequisites: INTD 203, EDUC 204, and SPED 205. Corequisite: INTD 301. Credits: 3(2-2) Offered every spring
