WHAT SHOULD FUTURE MATH MAJORS LEARN ABOUT PROOF IN HIGH SCHOOL?
Dan Teague, North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics Saturday, August 12, 1:00 pm – 2:20 pm This session, sponsored by SIGMAA TAHSM, will be organized as a town hall meeting. The intent is to have an open discussion between university faculty and high school teachers of advanced mathematics on the kinds of experiences and understanding about proof that future math majors should have as a part of their high school program. Many (perhaps most) future mathematics majors will have completed AP Calculus in high school. Some will have taken courses beyond that. Where and in what ways should proof be introduced to these students? Panelists will include Tom Banchoff, Brown University and Dan Teague. HOW TO GET PUBLISHED IN MAA JOURNALS Don Albers, MAA Director of Publications Saturday, August 12, 1:00 pm – 2:50 pm Editors of MAA journals will provide advice on what to write and how to write for MAA journals. Panelists will include Lowell Beineke, The College Mathematics Journal Editor;
