  • Mu Alpha Theta Explanation 2020-21
    Mu Alpha Theta (Math Club) Mu Alpha Theta is a mathematics honor society. The purpose of Mu Alpha Theta is to encourage and advance the development of the top mathematical minds at Deerfield Beach High School. The club participates in six competitions from January to March across the state of Florida. Five of these trips are one day trips on Saturdays and the other trip is two days (see schedule on page 2). The school competes individually and as a team in Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Pre-Calculus, Calculus and Statistics, so all levels of mathematics are tested and students from freshman through the senior class are encouraged to participate. In order to attend these competitions and do well, the club meets as a group on a weekly basis to practice. At these practices, prior tests are taken and reviewed to improve each student’s abilities. The club also meets twice a month to discuss the events the club annually participates in. This would include fund raising, and information about the competitions. Given the current online learning, we will have practices and meetings through Microsoft Teams. In April, the year culminates in the State Convention, a four day trip to Orlando in which the club competes against the best schools in the state. The convention is held at the Rosen Hotel near the Orlando convention center. The students take four individual tests at the convention and have the opportunity to compete in other contests such as the computer competition, relay, hustle and team competition. During the course of the year, the artists of our club, the historian and assistant historians, are taking hundreds of pictures at Mu Alpha Theta events to put them in a scrapbook, describing through pictures, words and most importantly, ART, the fun the club has had.

  • 2014 December
    DECEMBER 2014 MU ALPHA THETA NEWSLETTER M3 CHALLENGE PROVIDES FREE MATH MODELING RESOURCES Moody’s Mega Math (M3) Challenge, a rigorous team competition known for its distinctive hands-on learning experience for high school students, offers participants resources to use well into their careers. This year – the competition’s 10th anniversary – marks the first time competitors will have access to licenses and subscriptions not previously offered during the annual contest. The free competition, which challenges high schoolers to solve an applied problem through high-level mathematical models---with top teams required to present their papers to a panel of esteemed judges--- has awarded nearly $1 million in scholarship money since its launch. This year’s Challenge problem will be unknown until Challenge weekend on Feb. 28 and March 1, 2015. Students who register for the 2015 M3 Challenge will have yearlong access to free licenses to Wolfram Research’s Mathematica Student Edition and Wolfram|Alpha Pro, both designed to guide students through mathematical concepts and modeling. The subscription and training materials are approved for use during Challenge weekend. Recognizing the need for more practice problems and applicable ways to connect students to math modeling, organizers behind the M3 Challenge worked with professors and industrial mathematicians to develop the “Monthly Dialogue,” an interactive portion of the Challenge website that offers a different applied math topic or modeling resource monthly. This new online feature is free and open to the public, and includes a live forum, where visitors can interact with fellow competitors, mathematicians and even the problem author in real time.
