Talk:Number Theory

Instructors & Picture

First, I'm wondering if that picture is from THEO? I think a picture with Pomm & Timmer might be more appropriate (I know there are many out there), especially if they're in costume.

Second, just as a random inquiry, does anyone know if any of the THEO teachers are female? --Emma 21:41, 29 June 2009 (PDT)

That comment about 96.2 being the first time someone other than the creators worked with the course is wrong. I took it 95.2, and it was taught by a guy named Bruce (can't remember his last name) and a TA, whose name I think was Eric. I'd put it in if I could remember. Anyone? --Gwen 18:49, 3 July 2009 (PDT)

Prerequisites for Number Theory?

I'm not familiar with Geometry and Algebra II. Are they courses packaged into another course, or are they separate courses in and of themselves? My school does not have any courses that deal only with Geometry and/or Algebra II. We have Math A, Math B, and various calculus courses, so if I have completed Math B, would it be safe to assume that I will be able to take Number Theory?

Do you go directly from Math B into the calculus courses? I would think then you've complete the pre-req. I know at our school, on level students complete Algebra II during their Junior year. Geometry is before that, and covers a lot of theorems and proofs. Have you done that? Algerbra II is... a whole lot of stuff. -Emma
