Math in Games, Strategy and Invention

Math in Games, Strategy and Invention

at Fenimore Woods Park Pavilion

Hosted by Daily Challenge with Po-Shen Loh, and co-hosted by the Main Line Chinese Culture Center, this fun and interactive math event is meant for students who will be in Grades 5–8 next school year, together with their families. It will discuss some games which appear simple at first glance, but turn out to have powerful strategies that become visible after changing to a mathematical perspective.  The talk will also address parents, discussing educational philosophy, particularly around how to teach students to invent mathematically (to be able to come up with their own mathematical changes of perspective), instead of simply treating math as a subject to be memorized and drilled.

FREE to attend.  As there will be limited seating, registration is required.  Register online here
