Writing instruction and assignments are integral to the class’s learning objectives, and the instructor (and/or the teaching assistant assigned to the course) will be closely involved in supporting students as writers.
More specifically, writing-intensive classes:
• involve students in informal writing assignments that promote course learning;
• stage and sequence assignments to encourage writing as a process of creating and communicating knowledge;
• maximize opportunities for guidance, feedback, and revision;
• teach the writing conventions that are inseparable from modes of inquiry in a discipline; and
• make writing a substantive component of the overall course grade to underscore the value of writing to the course, the discipline, and student learning. | | Grading System: | A-F (Traditional) |

Description: | Advanced elementary geometry for prospective teachers of secondary school mathematics: axiom systems and models; the parallel postulate; neutral, Euclidean, and non-Euclidean geometries. | | Athena Title: | Foundations of Geometry I | | Equivalent Courses: | Not open to students with credit in MATH 5200 or MATH 7200 | | Nontraditional Format: | The W suffix is used for courses taught as writing intensive, which means that the course includes substantial and ongoing writing assignments that a) facilitate learning; b) teach the communication values of a discipline—for example, its practices of argument, evidence, credibility, and format; c) support writing as a process; and d) prepare students for further writing in their academic work, in graduate school, and in professional life. Writing instruction and assignments are integral to the class’s learning objectives, and the instructor (and/or the teaching assistant assigned to the course) will be closely involved in supporting students as writers.
More specifically, writing-intensive classes:
• involve students in informal writing assignments that promote course learning;
• stage and sequence assignments to encourage writing as a process of creating and communicating knowledge;
• maximize opportunities for guidance, feedback, and revision;
• teach the writing conventions that are inseparable from modes of inquiry in a discipline; and
• make writing a substantive component of the overall course grade to underscore the value of writing to the course, the discipline, and student learning. | | Prerequisite: | MATH 3000 or [(MATH 3200 or MATH 3200W) and (MATH 3300 or MATH 3300E)] or [(MATH 3500 or MATH 3500H) and (MATH 3510 or MATH 3510H)] | | Grading System: | A-F (Traditional) |

first year students and are also appropriate for continuing
students. By design the research experience will be different
each semester as the group, topic, or investigation changes. The
interaction among students and faculty is considered an important
aspect of the seminar. The research group format is the main
feature of recent reforms in the mathematics curriculum. | Semester Course
