This resource contains a student activity handout, a facilitation guide, example solutions, and class notes. Students work together to discover one-to-one correspondences between various infinite sets of numbers and the set of natural numbers. At the end of this activity the compiled results of their group work form a list of infinite sets that all have the same cardinality as the set of natural numbers. Instructors may take this lesson further by discussion countably infinite versus uncountably infinite sets. This activity aligns with MATH 1332 Learning Outcome 1: Apply the language and notation of sets.

This resource contains a slide deck and a facilitation guide. Students are guided to consider how mathematics can help us understand the phenomenon of a pandemic and inform our responses. Students work in groups using the NCTM’s browser pandemic app to manipulate four factors that influence the spread of a virus to see the how changing these variables creates different outcomes. They learn and explore how a log curve is used in this model. This activity aligns with MATH 1332 Learning Outcome 6: Demonstrate the ability to choose and analyze mathematical models to solve problems from real-world settings, including, but not limited to, personal finance, health literacy, and civic engagement
