- General resources
My teaching philosophy is available here in PDF and Postscript formats.
These are some good investigatory links for students or anyone
interested in further delving into mathematics:
- Budapest
Semesters in Mathematics is, in my opinion, the finest study
abroad program in mathematics out there. If you're interested in
mathematics or Hungary, or better yet both, it's definitely worth
applying.
- The Mathematical Association of
America is a American professional-mathematician society, with an
emphasis on the pedagogical, outreach, and training aspects of
mathematics. They run a great many wonderful programs targetted at
budding mathematicians from junior high school through junior
faculty.
- MathWorld is a pretty
good encyclopediac reference. It's run by Wolfram, so it's kind of
Mathematicaesque.
- The Online Encyclopedia of Integer
Sequences is an invaluable resource if you care even the slightest
bit about lists of numbers. If you ever need to find a pattern for
integers, or integers matching a pattern, this is your resource. It's
got Catalan numbers. It's
got numerators in the Taylor series
of tan(x). It's got the number
of strongly connected tournaments on n nodes. It's even
got the lyrics to the Boards of
Canada song "Aquarius".
- The Art of Problem
Solving is not only a wonderful book, but also a useful online
resource for anyone, especially high-school students, interested in
problem-solving. AoPS is also responsible for the San
Diego Math Circle, which is a great opportunity for students in
the San Diego area to learn and practice problem-solving skills.
