Description
Summary:Eco-Mathematics Education strives to show how everyone can experience the embedded connection between mathematics and the natural world. The authors' sincere hope is that by doing so, we can radically change the way we come to understand mathematics, as well as humanity's place in the ecosystem. The book hopes to accomplish this by providing in-depth lesson plans and resources for educators and anyone interested in teaching and learning mathematics through an ecological aesthetic perspective. All lessons are based on the inquiry method of teaching, aligned to standards, incorporate art projects inspired by famous artists, and utilize recycled and/or natural materials as much as possible.
