Michigan NExT
The 2010 Michigan NExT Symposium

The meeting will be followed by the Michigan Project NExT workshop for pre-tenure faculty. The 2010 Michigan NExT Symposium will be held on the afternoon of Saturday, May 8, from 2:00 - 5:00 on the campus of Eastern Michigan University. This year’s symposium will address the issues of organizing and running an effective mathematics capstone course/experience for math majors.  What makes a meaningful capstone experience?  Is one necessary?  Should it involve research?  Is it right for all of our students?  We will be interested in hearing about what schools are doing and what is working.

While we extend a special invitation to pre-tenure faculty members at Michigan colleges and universities to participate, we encourage a broad participation from any faculty members who are interested in a mathematics capstone experience.

To register for the symposium or to volunteer to give a short (15 to 30 minutes) talk about this year’s topic, the capstone experience go to: http://www.hillsdalesites.org/personal/dmurphy/MiNExT2010.html
