Four Sessions 

This course is offered online via the easy-to-use Zoom program.

Geared toward those with a minimal understanding of algebra who are eager to broaden their horizons, this course addresses many of the key tenets of mathematics: How do we use numbers?  Why is zero so important?  How do you convince someone of the validity of a conjecture?  Potential explorations include time, the "Golden Ratio" in art and architecture, prime real estate, characteristics and patterns of the Fibonacci sequence, infinity and beyond, puzzles, games and much more.

Course notes will be emailed to participants in advance.
