I wrote up what I think is a very easy to understand derivation of the Lorentz transformation (6 pages) aimed at beginning students of math and physics. I believe that my approach is sufficiently new, engaging and instructive to challenge students of special relativity.
Here's the challenge:

If this derivation is faulty at any point, where's the first error in math or misstep in logic?
Enjoy.
