ISTITUZIONI DI MATEMATICHE COMPLEMENTARI
Module MODULO II

Academic Year 2024/2025 - Teacher: MARIA FLAVIA MAMMANA

Expected Learning Outcomes

The aim of the course is to "manipulate mathematics" through DGS, mathematical machines and 3D printing.

In particular, the course proposes the following objectives:

 

Knowledge and understanding: To know the fundamental aspects of the technologies used in teaching/learning mathematics.

Applying knowledge and understanding: Apply modeling skills in different contexts

Making judgments: Make judgments about the quality of the proposed solution and evaluate its effectiveness. Acquiring critical skills in the areas of mathematics.

Communication skills : Ability to communicate their mathematical knowledge.

Learning skills : Using the knowledge gained to acquire new knowledge.

Course Structure

The course will take place twice a week. An active participation of the students is required: the lessons will be frontal and participated.

Should teaching be carried out in mixed mode or remotely, it may be necessary to introduce changes with respect to previous statements, in line with the programme planned and outlined in the syllabus.

Learning assessment may also be carried out on line, should the conditions require it.

Information for students with disabilities and / or SLD

To guarantee equal opportunities and in compliance with the laws in force, interested students can ask for a personal interview in order to plan any compensatory and / or compensatory measures, based on the didactic objectives and specific needs. It is also possible to contact the referent teacher CInAP (Center for Active and Participated Integration - Services for Disabilities and / or SLD) of our Department, prof. Filippo Stanco.

Required Prerequisites

No pre-requisite is required. Knowledge of Euclidean geometry and GeoGebra is recommended.

Attendance of Lessons

Class attendance is strongly recommended.

Detailed Course Content

Learning Assessment

Learning Assessment Procedures

The final examination consists of an oral test. The preparation of a 3D printing project and possibly a mathematical trail will also be required.

The learning assessment may also be conducted electronically, should the conditions require this.

Examples of frequently asked questions and / or exercises

Antiparallelogram. Geometric locus generated by the midpoint of a segment when one endpoint varies on a circumference.
