Final Project (due on the last day of class):

For your final Project, you will have the freedom to choose any topic and build a project that revolves around it. As we have discussed many times in class, there are many things that utilize math in our everyday life. Consequently, take an area you already have an interest in (soccer for example) and build a mathematics project around it (for example you might look at the growth of interest in soccer over the past twenty years as measured by participation in public recreation leagues and/or show sales). You can type a report, make a video or create a poster on your topic. As you can tell this project is totally your own. I do not have guidelines or restrictions. Make sure, however, you check with me when you come up with a topic. In addition, you need to use the tools you learned in class throughout the year (not elementary math).

Below you will find the description and a topic sheet for your project, which you need to turn in before you start working on your project. The due date for the topic sheet is May 12, 2010 and the final project is due on June 14, 2010 (last day of class, which is also your final exam day, so it’s not a good idea to wait until the day before to do the project and study for the exam).
