Writing in a History of Mathematics Capstone Course
ARTICLE

PRIMUS Volume 24, Number 6, ISSN 1051-1970

Abstract

This article presents two approaches to using original sources in a capstone writing project for a History of Mathematics course. One approach involves searching local libraries and is best suited to schools in metropolitan areas. A second approach involves online resources available anywhere. Both projects were used in a course intended for mathematics majors with an education concentration. The specific details of both projects will be discussed, including the motivation and setting, grading scheme, and revision process.
