In the Math Exhibition Project students were tasked with creating a math museum of visual and/or interactive artifacts. They also had to be able to explain the math behind their exhibit to any visitor at the math exhibition day.
The students brainstormed ideas for the exhibit. They voted on their top three favorite ideas. One class period went out to the exhibit space to informally map out the amount of space to determine the maximum number of exhibits possible. They narrowed down the ideas to the top 13 (a feasible amount with space and group size). The students self-selected an exhibit of their interest to work on.
