"Mathematics is about the big stories, not the grammar of the subjects," explains Marcus du Sautoy, Professor of Mathematics and Simonyi Professor for the Public Understanding of Science at the University of Oxford. During our recent Chats with Experts series, Marcus shared how the beauty of math lies in going beyond the technical basics—something that our students are currently learning in the Bachelor of Applied Mathematics.

Introducing the Counting to Calculus Program for Students From the technology that powers our cell phones and WiFi to the science behind airplanes and rockets, mathematics has been the invisible force driving the progress of science. As one great scientist said, “Mathematics is the language of science.” In the Counting to Calculus program, students embark on an enriching journey through the history and philosophy of mathematics and science, mastering key concepts and preparing for success in one of the most fascinating fields: calculus. This program takes students from the ancient mathematics of Babylon, Egypt, Persia, Greece, and Rome to the pivotal contributions of the Scientific Revolution. Students will learn how civilizations built upon each other’s mathematical discoveries, showcasing the integrated role of mathematics in advancing fields like astronomy, physics, and chemistry. In Counting to Calculus, students will study the work of pioneers like Euclid, Newton, Leibniz, Gauss, and many others, seeing firsthand how calculus revolutionized science by modeling both vast astronomical phenomena and the smallest particles in nature. This course offers a comprehensive study plan, covering: • Pre-Algebra, Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Calculus 1 & 2 • Statistics and Discrete Mathematics • Chemistry, Physics, Economics, and Logic • The History and Philosophy of Science from 2000 BC to the present What’s more, students can earn 28 college credits through LeTourneau University, plus 6 additional credits through CLEP tests. This means that with Counting to Calculus, high school students can complete their first year of college before even graduating. Join us as we inspire the next generation of thinkers to understand and appreciate the beauty of mathematics—not just for its applications, but for its profound impact on the world.

1960 NEW MATH. New mathematics is found in Time magazine of Feb. 3, 1958, in the heading, "The new mathematics" [OED]. New math is found again in an article which appeared in numerous newspapers on Sept. 25, 1960: “But the ‘new math’ is being promoted energetically by such influential bodies as the U. S. Office of Education, the National Science Foundation, the National Education Association, the Mathematical Association of America, the College Entrance Examination Board and the Carnegie Corporation.” * Jeff Niller cartoon about parental confusion during "New Math" introduction. #onthisdayinmath
