Course Description

Will the concepts you learn in geometry class ever be useful to you in the real world?!

Architects live and breathe geometry, and some of the most important landmarks in world history demonstrate the greatest applications of geometric principles.

This video-based course presents a different perspective, offering an interdisciplinary approach to geometry, as well as an aesthetic understanding of architectural landmarks from around the world. The use of geometry software deepens a student’s understanding of key concepts.
