301 Final Project

On February 11, you were assigned to a topic from the mathematical objectives for the NYS Mathematics CST.  Write an original summary of each of the exemplars at a level appropriate for a secondary student.  Include explanations of concepts and justifications of methods.  As this is a summary, be sure to feature the important points, but do not feel compelled to exhaustively discuss the topic.  Include references where students may find more information.  Please limit your summary to no more than five pages (not including references, or problems). 

Write eight non-trivial problems (at least one from each of the exemplars) with detailed solutions.  Please present solutions on separate paper from the problems. 

Present all your materials professionally in a way that is clearly comprehensible to other students. 

The final project is due on the last day of class, May 3.

Here are some samples:  04, 04a, 17, 17a, 20, 20a
