Testimonial from former Logic for Understanding Mathematics Student |

| Logic for
Understanding Mathematics is a full semester
of mathematics.
Dr. Austin French teaches using an overhead so you can watch him teach while looking at his notes. You'll find that the DVDs are very helpful in explaining the notes of the course. His "no note taking " methods are a talked about item at the Georgetown College in KY. LOGIC FOR UNDERSTANDING MATHEMATICS COURSE This learning system consists of the textbook, a supplementary materials book that contains many problems worked in detail, practice tests and real tests with answer keys and a set of DVDs with 31 teaching sessions. See the TABLE of CONTENTS for specific subjects covered by this course. CONTENT OF THE LOGIC FOR UNDERSTANDING MATHEMATICS COURSE The content includes truth tables, equivalencies, valid argument forms, direct proof, indirect proof, proofs involving "for every," and proofs involving "there exists," all carefully illustrated with elementary set theory proofs GOOD NEWS Mathematically inclined high school students can learn this material and benefit early! **web authors note: I found Dr French's courses easy to follow and understandable even though I have been out of school for 20+ yrs and didn't have all the requirements (except a math aptitude).

Dr. Austin French's Logic and
Understanding in Mathematics is a great course for students in both areas of
mathematics and computer science. His no-note-taking style of textbook
creates a prime atmosphere for anyone to fully learn the topics of discrete
mathematics. But, the course is much
more than just a semester's worth of math. Dr. French adds many
"truth nuggets" along the way that shed some light on how to grasp the
coursework using tips from the Bible and Dr. French's own personal experience.
His "truth nuggets" are hard to forget, and these tips still help me
in ANY course I take and in basically any facet of life. I recommend his textbook
series to anyone who wants to learn about these areas of math, or anyone who
wants to learn to be a better thinker and a better person (and learn a little
bit of math too). J.C. Hodgenville, KY Georgetown College |
