Current Educational Programs:
- The University of Minnesota Calculus Initiative
- The Geometry Center is assisting in the development of interactive
technology-based modules for the engineering calculus sequence. These
modules emphasize geometric concepts of calculus while examining
applications of mathematics to the physical and life sciences.
- Summer Institute
- Every summer, the Geometry Center holds a summer institute for
undergraduates and a summer course for teachers. In the past,
the students have worked on individual and group research efforts in
connection with projects of the Center; the teachers have developed
course materials in support of Center educational software.
- University of
Minnesota Talented Youth Program
- The UMTYMP program is an accelerated program for advanced high
school students. The Geometry Center has taught a laboratory-based
multi-variable calculus course as part of this sequence. Some of the
student's final group projects are presented here.
