Agreed! I've been working with a student, Ryan Rosenbaum, on a tutorial for our undergraduates, but with an eye to making the introductory parts very accessible to high school students. Coincidentally, we (well, Ryan) are just about to finish a first draft, which we will post someplace for comments, and I will notify this newsgroup. As to Williams comment: > I personally didn't go to high school or ever teach it or have kids, > so I don't have much of a clue what people learn in mathematics > there. I've done em all, and there's a lot to be said in favor of each such experience! I plan to test and get comments from them, their friends and teachers.
