I invite you to review my project-based Liberal Arts math textbook,
Math Is Everywhere! Explore and Discover It!

The text provides engaging, rewarding and enjoyable adventures in learning and has received many compliments and many positive responses from students and faculty who have used it. 

Please see the course Syllabus and Welcome Page for more details and the link below to selected chapters and sections.

Also, I invite you to review my new text booklet,
Riddles for Fun and Profit--The Heart of Mathematical Thinking (Kendall Hunt Publishing).

Designed for classroom interaction and student engagement (see sample riddles below).  Instructor manual contains both clues and solutions.   Can be used as a companion for any textbook.  Enjoy!

The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. -- Albert Einstein

Music is the pleasure the human mind experiences from counting without being aware that it is counting. -- Gottfried Leibniz

~~~ Riddles for Fun and Profit ~~~  

"I exist at war's outset, in the midst of battle, and at the end of all conflict.  Who or what am I?"

"Its bottom is hidden, its head hard to find.  Its mouth always open, as it speaks to mankind.  What is it?"
