2019 INNO SUMMER INSTITUTE

Logic in Action

Course Description

In middle school, students often focus on the calculation side of mathematics, from determining proportions to solving quadratic equations. However, this course offers insight into the conceptual world of mathematics. Throughout these two weeks, students will explore the logic in age-old puzzles, contemplate a mathematical theory first suggested by Leonhard Euler, discover paradoxes ranging from those of the pre-Socratics to those of the father of modern physics, and wade through the complex study of game theory. These topics, taught through activities, board games, and hands-on projects, will not only allow students to approach math more logically, but will also provide brief glimpses into the history of this influential and all-encompassing subject. ​
