The Maryland Mathematics Institute
The Department of Mathematics
envisions the MMI as an annual one-week, two-credit summer
course featuring several College Park faculty. The aim is to provide high
school mathematics teachers with interesting and enjoyable mathematics
relevant to teaching high school students, and to communicate to the
teachers the pleasure and relevance
of mathematics. The topics entailed in the MMI will
go beyond the standard courses preparatory for teaching high school
mathematics.
The Department also aims to build communication between College Park
faculty (primarily from the Mathematics Department but also from
Mathematics Education) and high school teachers,
and to provide high school mathematics teachers a setting
to learn from each other and enhance their own community.
