MATH 6150 - Advanced Geometry for Mathematics Teachers

Hours: 3
Originally focused on practical measurements of size and shape, geometry is one of the oldest branches of mathematics. Since those early days, geometry has become a foundation for mathematics far removed from the traditional context of the plane. Exploring its influence on the development of the discipline as a whole - from axiomatics to analysis, from physical space to abstractions of space - enables teachers to plan instruction that highlights connections within mathematics, as well as underscoring the significance of geometry.
