Wednesday September 22, 2004 Mathematics the way I like it.
|
While I was googling around for M.C. Escher links for my blog entry last weekend, I came across the web site of Jill Britton. In particular, I discovered her Number Patterns pages [part 1] [part 2]. She is attempting to teach mathematics (and related subjects) in a fun interactive manner. She has also had several books published. |
The books have extensive Internet based educational activity links (see links off the book pages above).
And finally, there is a download of some software for designing and generating Escher-like tessellations, quilt blocks, and Islamic patterns, described in the Explorations with TesselMania! book.
A wonderful approach to teaching maths to kids.
