Abstract | If students are in an advanced mathematics class, then at some point they enjoyed mathematics and looked forward to learning and practicing it. There is no reason that this passion and enjoyment should ever be lost because the subject becomes more difficult or rigorous. This author, who teaches advanced precalculus to high school juniors, describes how he uses a black-and-white cookie to introduce his students to the power rule for polynomial derivatives and integrals. (Contains 6 figures.) (ERIC). |
