1998 Summer Institute Projects
Each participant was asked to complete a project related to the content of the institute and useful to themselves and their colleagues. Participants for 1998 have generally created lesson plans which they have deemed usable by colleagues teaching similar courses, though at least one personal "I search" paper is also included among these projects.
