Supertechmom Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 What would you use for a discrete math class?? Not sure what that would entail. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiana Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 It would depend on the interest and ability level of the student, as well as what math they'd already had. My first step, however, would probably be the AOPS C+P and NT texts, which I would consider, taken together, as a one-year discrete math course. Discrete math is nowhere near as standardized as algebra, geometry, and calculus courses, so there is a wide variety of material that could legitimately be included.

regentrude Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I second kiana's suggestion of starting with AoPS C&P and NT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcadia Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 My kids have a vested interest in Discrete Math so I have collected some resources. New Jersey K-12 framework for Discrete Math 46 pages http://www.state.nj....math/math12.pdf Discrete Math Yale University Spring 1999, 139 pages http://www.cims.nyu....2005/dmbook.pdf Oregon State Uni, 122 pages http://www.math.oreg...urrentadapt.pdf Duke Spring 2009 Discrete Math for Computer Science 66 pages https://www.cs.duke....ctures/Book.pdf We are getting the AoPS books as a spine.

Supertechmom Posted June 19, 2013 Author Share Posted June 19, 2013 Oh thanks! He is finishing up AP CAl AB and plans on taking Ap Stats next year along with a "fun" math such as discrete math. Wasn't sure what that entailed as I am not the math person! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
