Pre-Calculus: Thinking Deeply About Simple Things, Jacob Carter
Pre-Calculus: Thinking Deeply About Simple Things, Jacob Carter
Graduate Research Showcase
“Pre-Calculus: Thinking Deeply About Simple Things” is a research-based creative endeavor focused on designing a high-school pre-calculus course. This course aims to foster deep, meaningful thinking, as well as an appreciation of the values of diversity, equity, and inclusion in the math classroom. The course leverages students’ funds of knowledge to employ culturally responsive teaching methods to connect mathematical concepts to the students’ backgrounds, interests, and real-life situations. This course also integrates social-emotional learning to create an engaging and supportive learning environment for all students. By combining Peter Liljedahl’s “Building Thinking Classroom in Mathematics” approach with problem-based learning, the course …

Supercavitation Capabilities On A Submarine, Adam Vu
Georgia College Student Research Events
Submarines have shaped the way wars have been fought and have been influential in our understanding of fluid dynamics. In the past, supercavitation has been implemented to an idea that has been used to significantly increase the velocity of torpedoes in Chinese and Russian submarines. An example of this is the Russian VA-111 Shkval torpedo. The idea being that if your torpedo is expelling a gas out of the nose cone region, creating a boundary layer between the water and the torpedo, the torpedo will be facing much less resistance relative to when it was traveling in water alone. This …

Will Coaching Improve One's Math Score On The Scholastic Aptitude Test?, Judith B. Moore
The Corinthian
The Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) has long been a determining factor for admission into most of the nation's colleges and universities. Numerous studies have been conducted to question the reliability and predictive validity of SAT scores, yet they are still widely used. The widespread use of these scores in determining college admission is an indication that the SAT will be around for quite some time. For this reason and for personal reasons, I posed the following research question: "Will coaching improve one's math score on the Scholastic Aptitude Test?"
