Does math seem a bit dull and uninspiring?
Be dazzled by the hypnotic beauty of nature and its spirals found on pinecones, pineapples, daisies, and sunflowers. Discover their underlying mathematical and scientific principles. Discover that math can be beautiful. Explore these natural forms scientifically, mathematically, and artistically as you move through the individual lessons in this course.
Math learning gets creativewhen you plan your own designs with spiral pattern templates, code interactive animated computer models, and use digital painting software to make colorful patterns. Express your artistic side while learning about floral spirals and the mathematics of this elegant natural organizational pattern. Use ratios, including the “Golden Ratio,” to model spirals with free drag and drop code, called Scratch. With movies, computer models, digital drawing, and painting projects, you develop an intuitive and practical knowledge of the Golden Angle and irrational numbers, while learning why the number of spirals in flowers and pinecones are Fibonacci numbers.
In our teaching experience, from primary school through graduate school, we confronted the horror and ugliness of typical educational materials, especially in math. So going beyond flashy and gimmicky approaches screaming for attention, our course sparks awe of nature’s beautiful patterns to drive passionate learning. Looking deeply and decoding nature’s patterns, you discover their underlying simple mathematical rules. Using math, science, and art, students model these patterns in computer code to see how they work, for example, how sunflowers, pinecones, and pineapples arrange their seeds in the most space-efficient way.
Through the beauty of natural patterns, math, science, and coding can be beautiful.
Share the wonder.
