245- Beyond ABAB Patterns: Focusing on Mathematical Structure and Repeated Reasoning

Friday, November 21, 2014: 1:30 PM-2:45 PM
342 BECF (George R. Brown Convention Center)
Lead Speaker:
Brian Mowry


Patterns are more than just colors ordered in a predictable ABAB sequence. Suppose Goldilocks found bicycles inside the Three Bears' garage? Whose bicycle would she see first, second, and third? Do you notice a pattern? This workshop explores the concept of structure in terms of its mathematical significance and its connection to literature and science.
