MATH 103 Project Description and Topics
2022
1 Introduction
In MATH 103 Final Project, students have an opportunity to showcase the knowledge they gained in this course and relate it to their academic careers. In this project, you will need to prepare an original lesson for Unit 8 following a similar structure as each lesson in this course. Essentially, you will try to reduce your learnings from Unit 8 into one lesson.You will need to determine the most important concepts and and discuss each in a way that is easily understandable to a novice learner such as a high school student who has never seen this topic before. The format of delivery is entirely up to the student. Examples include an essay, Powerpoint presentation or Prezi, a YouTube presentation, or Interactive Website. Final projects must be submitted to LEARN dropbox. The length of the project should not exceed 15 pages (including references) or 20 minutes including the references. Projects should be divided into 5 sections:
PART I: The definitions of Counting Principles and Probability, and a description of its major
subareas.
PART II: Different types of counting strategies and their use cases in probability. PART III: Connections to binomial probability distributions.
PART IV: Practice problems and solutions. Ideally, your project will include some worked exam-
ples and some practice problems.
PART V: List of references and feedback from your reviewer. (around 1 page).
2 Things to consider
• The work you submit must be your own. Do your best to use your own words for definitions. You can also use other resources. Again, be sure to use your own words.
• During your lesson, you should not use the same examples as in Mobius Unit 8. Our lessons and other resources are certainly helpful and can inspire you, but you should create your own examples.
• There is no need to cite our course notes. Be sure to properly cite any external resources you use in the text so our team can verify them.
• Your work will be evaluated using the rubric provided in Section 5.
• Because of University regulations regarding final exam periods, peer feedback will not be incorporated into this project. However, our teaching will be available for early feedback. See Section 3. ]
3 Project Plan – Optional
Our teaching team will be happy to review an early draft of your project and provide feedback on the structure of your project. Project Plans must be submitted to your course instructor via email by Tuesday, April 5, 2022 at 11:55 PM.
4 Academic Integrity:
Academic integrity is the cornerstone of research, teaching, and learning. Members of the University of Waterloo community are expected to personally demonstrate academic in- tegrity in their work. We are here to help you do so.
