MATH 0251 - Foundations: Geometry


Credits: 3

An introductory course on geometry and measurement. Topics will include: Euclidean geometry, characteristics and properties of 2- and 3-dimensional shapes, topology, symmetry and transformational geometry, the development of measure, and the derivation of measurement formulae. Students will develop a conceptual understanding of the course material in a learning environment that models the pedagogical foundations of the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks for Mathematics and the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) Standards.

Prerequisites: MATH 0153 .
