Interdisciplinary Climate Change Awareness at a Historically Black College or University
  Mentor: Mr. Kaiem Frink, MATH 121

Course Objectives

  • To acquaint students with selected topics from algebra, set theory, probability, logic, statistics and graph theory that will provide a foundation for applications in different fields.
  • To develop the student’s ability to analyze and solve problems by using different methods of solution.
  • To acquaint students with methods of data analysis.
  • To acquaint students with consumer mathematics.
  • To acquaint students with applications that are related to different fields of interest and to allow students to discover how mathematics is connected to other disciplines.

Description: Contemporary College Mathematics is intended to give liberal arts majors an exposure to different topics in mathematics. Topics covered in this course include functions and their graphs, systems of equations and inequalities, counting methods, and selected topics from set theory, probability, statistics, consumer mathematics geometry and graph theory. Math 121 is one of the choices for general education mathematics requirements for liberal arts majors. The course is a required course for interdisciplinary studies majors who wish to teach in elementary and middle school. Students should gain a greater appreciation for mathematics-related knowledge and how it related to everyday decisions-making. Quantitative skills are crucial in our technology-based society.

Interdisciplinary Climate Change Awareness at a Historically Black College or University
Undergraduates in Mr. Frink’s Math 121 participated in an Interdisciplinary Climate Change Awareness at a Historically Black College or University. The focus of the project was to address how to teach pre-service teachers about Climate Change through, technology projects, discussions, social media, and through scientific journals.
In addition students attended supplemental instruction lecture sessions titled:

                “How to Address to Faith Based Organization on the Topic of Climate Change”

                “The Mathematical Logic of Truth Tables and Climate Change Awareness”
