MTHE 771 - Role of Change in Perspective in MathematicsCredits 3 This course is designed to have teachers of mathematics examine the role that "Change of Perspective" plays in the learning and creation of mathematics. Through a series of readings, reflective writings, and mathematical creations students will investigate the power of this mental tool in discovering and creating mathematics and the implications thereof for teaching mathematics. Just as purposely changing one's perspective from Analytic to Synthetic Geometry brings new tools to the mathematician's arsenal, this course will investigate what role this sort of shift, among others, plays in the subject.
