We are going to talk a little bit more about web searches. After I discuss ways to make a good search criteria, you will write a short research paper (2-3 paragraphs). Be sure that as you work on this paper you are finding credible sources, and listing your sources!

Your research paper should discuss the life of a major mathematician. Include each of the following:
  • When he lived and died
  • Where he lived
  • Reason he is important
    • What contribution did he make to mathematics?
    • How are these contributions used now?
    • What discoveries were built upon his contributions?
  • Bibliography! Give the URLs where you found your information
Make sure that you use the CARS credibility model from the link yesterday. You should have at least three sources.

Save this in the mathematicians folder as mathematician-[name].doc
