Paradoxes and Infinity Seminar

In this class we'll explore several popular paradoxes and attempt to wrap our brains around the world of infinity. For example, we'll discover a hotel that's never full: somehow, this hotel can always add another guest, or two, or three. We'll also run into paradoxes about goats, haystacks, pop-quizzes and more. If you're interested in mind-bending ideas and theories and have a background in basic algebra, this class is for you!

Lessons

Lesson 1 Paradoxes
Lesson 2 Infinity

I enjoyed this course very much. I've had calculus before but this went into much more depth. I feel as if I have a much better understanding of how calculus works than I ever did before. My favourite classes were the ones where we had problem solving sessions. The difficult problems day was especially interesting. I'm really excited to learn more math; this class gave me a glimpse of what is to come!
