ED 263 Arts, Mathematics, Community & Learning
Juggling and Origami are studied as embodied performance and as mathematical arts, providing opportunities to explore relationships among modes of learning, community development, and interdisciplinarity. Students learn to juggle 1,2,3, and 4 balls in various patterns , and to create a variety of origami models, physically and using mathematical tools and representations. Educational, mathematical and other readings provide theoretical and interdisciplinary contexts. Mathematization of these performative arts help students invent their own creative work, and to together create public outreach performances that attempt to share the experiences of interdisciplinarity with audiences outside of class. Final weeks of the semester challenge the bifurcations of embodiment and cognition, and mathematization and creative arts, in new contexts.
No field experiences required.
