University to Host Integration Bee for Area Students April 30
The University of Scranton will host its annual Math Integration Bee for area high school and college students Wednesday, April 30. The competition, which is free of charge, will begin at 4:30 p.m. in the Mcllhenny Ballroom of the DeNaples Center.
The competition can help students improve their skills for Advanced Placement mathematics tests. The format is similar to a spelling bee, but Integration Bee participants find antiderivatives of functions of a single real variable.
The Integration Bee is hosted by the University’s Mathematics Department and includes awards in both high school and college divisions.
Information and registration is available on the University’s Mathematics Department webpage. (www.scranton.edu/academics/cas/math/bee2014.shtml)
