  • May 1st Join the Mathematics Department to hear the senior capstone presentations.

    Standards. 2:00-2:25pm – Polynomial Rings and Connections with Common Core Math Standards Andrew Curran We begin by introducing the Common Core State Standards in Mathematics and their history, as well as bringing in some examples of high school math standards. We then introduce abstract algebra concepts, defining terms such as rings, fields, and polynomial rings, as well as showing how arithmetic works in polynomial rings. Next, we introduce and prove the Division Algorithm. We conclude the paper by
