Welcome to Math 180! In this class we will learn mathematical strategies of problem solving through the lens of puzzles, games, and other problems. We will also get some first-hand experience with abstract mathematics, including sets, functions, relations, and countability!

First steps

Please familiarize yourself with the syllabus (link) and the Canvas site for this course, starting with the Orientation Module (link). Also, be sure that you have the necessary technological requisites:

  • A reliable internet connection

This class is highly interactive, and will require you to attend class meetings regularly and be engaged. Activities and other students’ learning will depend on your participation!
