News from the Net: Thinking Geometrically: Totally Tessellated

Teaching Children Mathematics, 2004
Involving students in a hands-on geometry unit is a fun way to finish the school year. The visual aspects of the content can engage students even in the last weeks of school. Once students begin to look at mathematical patterns and relationships, they can extend this thinking to other academic areas such as language arts, science, and social studies.

Geometric and Topological Thinking in Organic Chemistry

Angewandte Chemie International Edition in English, 1986
AbstractThe beginning student of organic chemistry is often bewildered by what appears to be an enormous maze of random structural variations and reactions that can be mastered only by tedious memorization. To the organic chemist, however, the same subject is often a beautifully ordered discipline of elegant simplicity.

Thinking Geometrically in Pierre-Daniel Huet's "Demonstratio evangelica" (1679)

Journal of the History of Ideas, 2002
Sometime after 1679, Pierre-Daniel Huet (1630-1721) indulged an author's vanity by comparing his Demonstratio evangelica with works whose authors are far better known today. He recorded his judgments on a scrap of paper.1 First, he contrasted the Demonstratio to Antoine Arnauld's Les nouveaux elemens de geometrie (1664).

EXPLORING THE EVOLUTION OF GEOMETRICAL THINKING

2013
Geometry situated artefacts is a great resource to have learners experience geometry. This study explores how pre-service teachers go through this experience and how they benefit by connecting real life geometry to their learning geometry trajectory.

Geometrical Thinking: Solving a Problem on Graphic Representation

2020
Establishing a new drawing system demands critical attention from the user in order to make the correlation between objects that are being represented, and the instruments used for their depiction. The successful use of a technique requires taking into consideration the knowledge implied in that same procedure.
