Sets, Logic, and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Approach to the Learning of Mathematics and English

Abstract

Sets, Logic, and Writing is a course that offers students an innovative, interdisciplinary mathematics and English composition curriculum in a collaborative learning environment. The mathematics instructor and the English instructor team teach in the same classroom, integrating topics from both disciplines. The goal of the course is to enhance the reasoning, problem-solving skills, and critical thinking of underprepared college freshmen, enabling them to perform better in more advanced mathematics and writing courses
