Perfect Numbers and Perfect Polynomials: Motivating Concepts From Kindergarten to College

Abu-Arish, Hiba Ibrahim

Abstract Details

2016, Master of Mathematical Sciences, Ohio State University, Mathematical Sciences.
In this thesis we will show that perfect numbers can be used as a medium for conveying fundamental ideas from school mathematics. Guided by the Common Core Standards, we present activities designed for students from pre-kindergarten through high school. Additionally, we show how perfect numbers can be used in college level courses. These activities aim for students to gain a deeper understanding of the different mathematical concepts that are related to perfect numbers. This will bring students closer to unsolved problems in mathematics.
