I am wondering if anyone has information on topics for an essay or research
paper for high school Math students to do in a Calculus course or a Finite
Math course (Permutations/Combinations/Matrices).  At the school where I
work, the Principal is making it mandatory to have an essay in every
course.  As math teachers, we are racking our brains for ideas so that we
can incorporate this policy into our classes.  Any help or WWW links would
be very helpful.
