How CEMC's Master of Mathematics for Teachers program offers educators the unique opportunity to deepen their understanding of mathematics – online and at their own pace.
On April 8, 2024, the Moon's shadow will sweep across a relatively narrow strip of the Earth's surface. To be in the right place at the right time for such an event, a solar eclipse, is quite rare. Here in Waterloo, Ontario, we will be treated to a partial eclipse of the Sun during this event. However, one does not need to travel far from Waterloo (e.g., Niagara Falls) to get into the path of totality to observe a total solar eclipse. In the path of totality, the Moon will - if only for a few minutes - completely block out the Sun making it possible to observe the Sun's magnificent corona.
Mathematics intersects with various disciplines, allowing mathematicians to collaborate with professionals in fields such as medicine, chemistry, and psychology to address real-world questions and make a tangible difference.
