This is a project to develop students' understanding of Newton's Method using the tools available in Geogebra. This project was adapted from a similar project developed by folks at Grand Valley State University. (If any of you see this and would like more specific attributions, please let me know.)

A simple proof of Riemann's Rearrangement Theorem. Also called Riemann's series theorem.

Suppose we have some topological spaces lying around. How can we build new topological spaces using the old ones? There are four fundamental constructions: subspaces, disjoint unions, products, and quotients. Defining the topologies on each can be done in two ways. One way is through ad hoc definitions. These definitions make some intuitive sense, but look very different from one construction to the next. The other way uses canonical maps. Canonical maps provide a single framework in which all constructions obey the same unifying principle.

A detailed report of findings on the altitudes which can be reached by super pressure balloons and how various factors and considerations affect this. Superpressure balloons are deployed and researched by various organisations including NASA, to solve technical limitations such as cell tower coverage as well as advancing fields of research. Balloons are used in planetary exploration, and weather prediction to teaching primary school physics. The versatile yet simple aerostat has been a valuable tool in many areas of engineering and their altitude ceiling is of great scientific interest. To solve the problem without the ability to physically reproduce the scenario, required mathematical models to be created as a means of simulating the effects of real world physics. A degree great enough to output an accurate and hence useful result without becoming too complex to be computable is the fine balance attempted to be created by this paper.
