Project Overview: After learning about straight edge and compass constructions, students watch the TED Ed The Complex Geometry of Islamic Design. Each student first observes objects with Islamic geometric design in and around their community. They then create an original Islamic geometric design that is accurately drawn, aesthetically pleasing, and tessellates completely. Here's the full project description.
Student Reflection:
“This was my favorite project of the year! I had never heard of Islamic design before, and now I see it everywhere and know the math involved.” Comments are closed.
