I also teach geometry to the same age group. Quantization in physics (Snyder studied an interesting noncommutative space in the late 1940s). The idea of noncommutative geometry is to encode everything about the geometry of a space algebraically and then allow all commutative function algebras to be generalized to possibly non-commutative algebras. Taught Business Statistics to Business Students. Analytic geometry could be moved into Algebra II – and there would be time as the “review” of solving systems wouldn't be needed as there wouldn't be the year off. I'm wondering the following: Why is it that the conversations in geometry are so much more interesting, generally? I teach algebra 1, to 9th and 10th graders, mainly. Here's a lovely quote that students will empathize with:"A recent study on the use of vectors by introductory physics students summarized the conclusions in two words: "vector avoidance". These are an important tool in many branches of mathematics - algebraic topology, K-theory, representation theory and in theoretical physics.

The Garland Independent School District serves the communities of Garland, Rowlett and Sachse, Texas. I studied category theory a bit here at Columbia from Lauda, and took some representation theory with Khovanov, but I think (at least at this point in time) my calling in physics is geometrical algebras. Currently teaching Math to high school,middle school students and students preparing SAT,ACT,ASVAB Exams. More generally, noncommutative geometry means There are many sources of noncommutative spaces, e.g. Clifford algebras in Classical Physics is being discussed at Physics Forums. It provided a way to understand the complex mathematical objects arising from the study of differential equations in physics by converting the difficult problems in geometry and topology into more amenable algebra. So, I'm looking for some valid reasons why this This connection is, on the one hand, natural (a 4-year old can tell a circle from an oval from a square) and, on the other hand, deep (geometry is the indispensible apparatus of classical mechanics and other physics). Before that I should say a bit more about Clifford algebras.
