Complex functions, sequences, limits, differentiation and Cauchy-Riemann equations, elementary functions, Cauchy's theorem and formula, Taylor's and Laurent's series, residues, conformal mapping. Not offered for credit if credit is received for MATH 647.

Exploration of mathematical topics beyond the student's previous coursework in the seminar format. The course focus is on independent research, collaborative work and classroom engagement; oral presentations and written work are required.

Provides prospective elementary teachers with the opportunity to explore and master concepts involving number systems and operations, data analysis and probability. Additional topics may include geometry, measurement, and algebraic thinking. Mathematical reasoning, problem solving, and the use of appropriate manipulatives and technology are integrated throughout the course. Readings, class discussions, and assignments focus on mathematics content as well as applicable theories of learning, curriculum resources, and state and national recommendations. The course models instructional techniques that can be adapted to the elementary curricula. Credit offered only to M.Ed. and M.A.T., certificate students, and in-service teachers. (Not offered for credit if credit is received for MATH 821 or MATH 823.)

This course introduces new graduate teaching assistants in mathematics and statistics to teaching in mathematics and statistics. Topics include group facilitation, active learning, grading, diversity and inclusion in the classroom, goal setting, classroom management, time management, designing rich mathematical tasks, and research on student learning.
