Want to be able to solve the integrals from the MIT Integration Bee? Want to know more about integration? This series is for you! We will review some integration techniques that will be important to know to solve the integrals in the MIT Integration Bee. Then, we will work through some of the integrals from the bee. This series is for anyone who is interested in integration, regardless of your "skill". All questions on this bee can be solved with elementary methods. It would be great if you are already familiar with integration and calculus concepts. A completely elementary understanding of calculus is definitely fine. This is a series to culture curiosity and have fun integrating. You will need anything that you do math on or take notes on. After some review and practice, we can run a integration bee of our own. We can either do similar difficulty questions but more time or less difficult question but same time. If learners want to, at the end of the series, I can go over some advanced methods of integration that are used less often but are pretty cool regardless.

Each session we will go over a unit of Pre-Calculus and spend 2 sessions on the longer and more difficult units. We will have two sessions a week. Prior knowledge of Algebra 2 recommended. A graphing calculator is recommended as well as a writing tool.

The basis of mathematics is logic! We will go over logic and one of its preliminary applications and similarities with set theory, which plays a very important role in pretty much every field of mathematics. We will start with basics of logic. Then sessions will include, its notations, subsets, union & intersection, complement, DeMorgan's laws, and much more. If the timings don't work for you, let me know, I can figure something out so that you can learn too. This is purely for enrichment and fun! I know registration is full, but let me know if you are interested, and I will open it up.
