Weekly participation in discussions and activities. Final presentation or project on a selected Greek letter and its mathematical significance.Experiencia de clase
In this course, students will explore the fascinating world of the Ancient Greek alphabet and its profound influence on mathematics. From the early use of Greek letters in geometry and trigonometry to their continued relevance in modern math and science, this class will provide a deep understanding of how the Greek alphabet has shaped mathematical concepts and notations throughout history. Students will learn about the Greek letters’ mathematical applications and explore their symbolic meanings. • Hands-on math exercises: In each session, students can solve problems or create simple projects using the Greek letters they’ve learned. • Discussions and presentations: Encourage students to share how a particular Greek letter (like π, θ, or Δ) is used in modern math or science. • End-of-course project: Each student can pick a letter or concept from the course and explain its significance in mathematics. Benefits: 1. Depth: You can dive deeply into each area of math (geometry, trigonometry, calculus, etc.) and connect it to the Greek alphabet. 2. Variety: Each week will cover a different field of math, which keeps the course dynamic and engaging. 3. Historical Context: By integrating math with history, students gain a richer understanding of how ancient Greek innovations still influence modern math.

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
I am a lifelong enthusiast of mathematics and history and how one has shaped the other. To truly understand math we must know from where it originated and why or for what purpose. Math throughout history no matter at what point in time was used for survival and to understand better the world in which we live.
