I chose this subject area because I have always been very interested in the curriculum, what makes some people "math people" and other not, and how we can use the tools at our disposal to create more engagement and personal interest in math. I have broken my topic down into three concepts accordingly. Exploration and creativity because I think students should have more free reign over what they are learning in their high school classrooms and the math curriculum can be a bit boring at times. Personal interests because I want to see what creates any sort of personal interest in academic subjects. And finally, making advanced math topics more accessible because I think that the BC curriculum is pretty limited in the scope of mathematics that it teaches and especially for young, eager students, I think there should be opportunities for exposure to more advanced topics.
