The cultural factors surrounding this event and how this event relates to the historical trends in the mathematical education of students in the United States from 1950 to today must be explored and analyzed.
The paper has a rough draft finished, as well as an outline. Sources have already been picked, but if others are needed, that is acceptable.
The final paper should be submitted as one document and will include: Cover Page: title, name, date, course. Introduction: Introduce the topic and provide context. Briefly explain any background information surrounding the topic and outline the focus of the paper. Body of Paper: This includes previous works/events that led up to this event, description of the people and culture of the time period, a short biography of the mathematician, details of the work, the importance of the work in the mathematics community or perhaps other disciplines, and later mathematics that the work influenced; make clear connections to how this mathematics is implemented in mathematics education today. Conclusion: Summarize the topic as well as include a reflective analysis of what you gained from researching the topic and how you would teach this topic in a mathematics classroom.References: Include six or more references and use proper APA formatting. You may use the History Library Guide to research scholarly articles.
