The Logic for Mathematics curriculum introduces a branch of modern mathematics called Propositional Logic, a course that is typically a required component of a college major in mathematics, computer science or philosophy. An experienced team of mathematicians and math educators has created a course in propositional logic that is accessible to bright middle and high school students, combining fun with rigor, intrigue with challenge, and that gives students a taste of what it feels like to be a real mathematician. |
