Phun with “Phractals” and Phi for 100-Level Quantitative Literacy Mathematics Courses

Laura Lembeck ⟨lslembeck@wcu.edu⟩

Abstract:

In this session, I will describe how I introduce fractal mathematics with iterative processes and focus on key aspects of the golden ratio and transcendental number Phi. I will include some of the video clips I use to get students engaged with the concepts, examples they practice in the classroom to further their understanding, and assignments that align with the learning objectives of this course - “Students will craft written and/or oral communication demonstrating organization, clarity, logic and skill for various audiences.”
