Teaching Information and Resources
At the bottom is a summary of my teaching experience, with links to Dartmouth course webpages. Between here and there are handouts and presentations I've created and links to useful webpages.
Resources I've created:
My course notes (draft, spring 2011) for Math 29, Computability Theory. Note this class has no prerequisites beyond high school math, so the text aims to be self-contained re: background material.
LaTeX information and resources for students (and others).
Proof-writing tips and notes on mathematical definitions, aimed at my linear algebra students but not subject-specific.
Linear algebra resource page for a talk I gave to the Dartmouth Math Club. Includes the slides from that talk.
Smaller slide presentations for linear algebra, with significant overlap with the presentation linked to above:
An explanation, with examples and exercises, of mathematical induction.
Calculus handouts:
Resources elsewhere:
An extensive page on the Fibonacci numbers by Ron Knott. My favorite part is about honeybee family trees.
A free (in cost, not in faithfulness) translation of Euclid's Elements by Richard Fitzpatrick.
The University of Michigan's Historical Mathematics Collection.
Turing Machine Simulators Online
