Some Abstract Algebra: For Secondary Teachers

By Richard Grassl

This primer is designed to provide an adequate introduction to the essentials of abstract algebra and to some related number theory. A problem solving approach has been taken -- there are over 150 problems -- so be prepared for minimal text material to read.

Very little background in abstract algebra is needed for a course based on this primer. The content and methodology has been implemented successfully for well over a decade with in-service secondary teachers seeking licensure or an MA degree in teaching mathematics. The oft-quoted maxim, "You learn mathematics by doing mathematics" is embraced.
