Fractal geometry will make you see everything differently Our aim is to enrich the lives of families by presenting today's extraordinary fractal arts and their links with the nature of society. Fractal geometry is cutting edge knowledge and yet is accessible to the Nova community and the general public as well. It is invaluable for us to see in a new scientific way the edges of clouds, forests, galaxies, leaves, feathers, flowers, rocks, mountains, torrents of water, carpets, bricks, and much more. Fractal geometry is an extension of classical geometry. It can be used to make precise models of physical structures from ferns to galaxies.
Fractal geometry is a new language.
Once you can speak it, you can describe the shape of a cloud as precisely as architect can describe a house. This is why it yields a necessary language for many aspects of science and human activity. So mathematics is associated with utility and applications. It is also associated with achievement in unraveling the complexities of the structures it studies. The forum will focus on the progress made in developing a pedagogy that uses assessment and evaluation, technology, computer tools, and guided inquiry laboratory experiments as supplements to the traditional lecture.
