Workshops : Clemson Geometry Project
The Clemson Geometry Project merges technology training with ready-to-use materials that teachers can implement immediately in their classrooms to help their students master the key concepts in Geometry.
The program keys on eight fundamental units that encompass the major topics in Geometry courses in the vast majority of contemporary American high schools. To assist teachers in implementing the materials, the units have been correlated to the best selling Geometry textbooks currently on the market.
The materials supplement, but do not replace, the texts currently in place. The Project integrates technology in a manner that both capture’s fundamental concepts and enriches student learning, while being fully compatible with the materials school districts have already adopted. During the workshop, time is allotted for discussion, and for participants to develop and make presentations. Time is spent on providing teachers with specific lessons that use technology to improve student learning. At the conclusion of the workshop, participants will have combined a growing facility for using the tools with the geometric concepts they will be teaching.
The Project includes the following units: CUSTOM TOOLS EXPLORING LINES EXPLORING TRIANGLES EXPLORING POLYGONS EXPLORING CIRCLES EXPLORING RIGHT TRIANGLES EXPLORING THE PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM EXPLORING SIMILARITY AND PROPORTIONALITY EXPLORING TRANSFORMATIONS
