Spring Math+ 2023 - Indianapolis, IN
Instructor: Michael Kaplan
Level: Middle School (6th-8th)
Bio:
Michael Kaplan currently teaches high school mathematics at Brebeuf Jesuit Preparatory School in Indianapolis, IN. In five years of teaching, he has taught Algebra I, Algebra II, and Geometry. He has an undergraduate degree in Secondary Education: Mathematics from Indiana University. A passionate mathematician who uses high-intensity dad humor to make the introduction of complex concepts a light and enjoyable experience for any age.
About the course:
This Spring, the Math+ program will be focused on the concept of Infinity. Infinity can be defined as “something without any limit”. The concept has applications across disciplines but is particularly critical in mathematics where the concept has been at the center of the field since 1655 when John Wallis, a leading mathematician, defined its mathematical symbol.
NOTE: The course will be offered in person at Brebeuf Jesuit. Room location and other information will be communicated to registrants.

Testimonials:
"My experience with this class was very positive! It was a great way to interact with some students and teachers before my freshman year and obtain an understanding of what math was going to look like at Brebeuf. This class also allowed me to become more open minded with math and to believe that there can always be more than one way to understand or solve a problem!"
"I took Mr. Kaplan's Math+ class the spring/summer before freshman year and LOVED it. Mr. Kaplan was a fun and interactive teacher and it got me thinking to the point where I would go talk about the puzzling problems with my family members. I also ended up lucky enough to have Mr. Kaplan again for Algebra 2 honors freshman year!"
