During the meeting in Bulgaria students will be able to:
- See how math-related knowledge is realistically applied in practice in a person's life;
-
See the beauty of mathematics, based in the geometric shapes of the
Rosettes and embroideries seen on Bulgarian national costumes;
- Participate in a lesson in mathematics, which utilizes the Inquire based learning.
- Discover all properties and regularities set in the triangles of Pascal and Sierpinsky;
-
Find out about the contributions of the famous mathematician from Stara
Zagora, Ivan Salabashev, and give their guess on its solution;
-
Visit neolithic era homes, which date back to more than 8000 years.
There they will observe the geometric forms used by the ancient
Thracians in
building their homes.
- Have fun by applying their mathematical knowledge by playing math-related games.
In
Stara Zagora, we will show our guests how to experience mathematics,
how beneficial, beautiful and inspiring it is, and why there is a point
in
studying it. Here we will host a welcoming beautiful and grand finale to our project.
During
the project meeting in Bulgaria all partners are going to learn about
the profession of restorer.They are going to visit the the historic
museum,
Neolithic dwellings and Roman theater. They will be able to
use their knowledge of mathematics in restoring mosaics with GeoGebra,
Imagine Logo,
Scratch to explore and locate the plot of the square
function anywhere around them.To create their own dynamic description of
parabola, calculate
the number of people in a newspaper article or
photo. Practically applicable tasks. Numerical Sequences - a branch of
mathematics studied by
students of this age. Using GeoGebra, we will
build geometric forms / shapes. We will find numerical sequences in the
triangles Pascal and
Serpinski. While students work, teachers will
guide them. We will present a presentation on "Geometric shapes in the
Bulgarian national embroidery".
We will reveal their symbolism.
