Title of TalkMathematics for Sustainable Living: Pre-Calculus Basics
AbstractThis talk describes a new math course I am designing for our Sustainable Living students. The purpose of the Sustainable Living major is to equip students to design, build, and maintain sustainable communities. The prerequisite for the new math course is Intermediate Algebra. It will cover simple linear models, exponential and logarithmic functions, graphs of functions, trigonometry of triangles, and elementary probability, all in the context of problems and topics arising in our Sustainable Living major.
