  Enrollment limited to 25
  Corequisite: Must be enrolled in Mathematics 131 concurrently.
  The Calculus I Workshop is a challenging, interactive group learning environment for interested students.

Students are encouraged to “talk mathematics”, thinking aloud and working with other students. Workshop problems are based on the material covered in lecture, but they are designed to stretch each student’s abilities to the fullest extent. The students spend most of the workshop time collaborating in groups, grappling with difficult ideas and problems.

Open to other students with permission of the instructor. See the description of Mathematics 132.
3245 MATH-201-01 Problem Solving in Mathematics 0.50 LEC Cancelled Y NUM  
  Enrollment limited to 30
  Prerequisite: C- or better in Mathematics 126 or Mathematics 131, or an appropriate score on the AP Examination or Trinity's Mathematics Qualifying Examination.
  Problems appear in every part of mathematics and often have an intrinsic beauty and appeal. Mathematical problem solving is not a distinct branch of mathematics, but rather is a “mindset” which combines results from all branches of mathematics with a collection of useful techniques and strategies. Attempts have been made to develop “systems” for problem solving, but for the most part facility is gained through experience. The purpose of this course is to develop skills in and foster an appreciation of mathematical problem solving. It will not be a “cookbook” course which teaches students to match stereotypical problems with canned solutions. Rather, the course will be a hands-on experience, and students will be expected to explore and present solutions to a wide variety of non-routine and challenging problems, both individually and in groups. Since the range of problems which a student can solve expands as a student masters more branches of mathematics, students can profitably repeat this course. This course may only be taken Pass/Fail and may be retaken for credit with permission of the department.
