Math in the Financial Crisis
I'm going to be teaching Math 181, a course in mathematics for non-technical majors, starting on Monday. It's a really fun course, and I always enjoy teaching it.
I would really like to incorporate material from the current financial crisis into the course. It would be a perfect example of how understanding mathematics can help them understand their world. Does anyone have any ideas for how to go about this?
