Material Detail
Topology
A unit designed to develop logical reasoning through topology, using sorting, classifying, and patterning. Topology is about points, lines, and the figures they make; but length, area, curvature and angle can be altered as much as you wish. Thus topology is sometimes called Rubber-Sheet Geometry. Topics chosen are presented in a way that requires a minimum mathematical background and maturity; it is not assumed that students who use this unit know how to solve even simple equations or that they have much acquaintance with geometric figures.
