The morning workshop will be:

Patterns in Nature and Numbers, presented by Kiron Sharma

Patterns are all around us. In this hands-on workshop, participants will explore an intriguing set of natural patterns, become captivated by their multiple occurrences in the world and begin to understand and unravel how these patterns relate to one another mathematically.

The afternoon program will feature 30-minute presentations by participants, discussing what they have done with discrete mathematics in their classrooms.

Inspired by the success of previous years, we will once again organize a poster session for Saturday afternoon. We will set aside a room where participants can informally share and display their discrete classroom ideas, student work, lesson plans, and bulletin board ideas. Please pack some discrete classroom goodies that will brighten the walls and tables at the Mega-Conference and inspire others.

There is no charge for participating in the Mega-Conference for 2001 Fairleigh Dickinson participants.
