624- License Plate Math: Palindromes, Graphing, and Transformations

Saturday, April 20, 2013: 8:00 AM-9:15 AM
103/105 (Convention Center)
Lead Speaker:
Ryan Andrew Nivens

Handouts
  • Nivens NCTM handout.pdf (324.3 kB)

    • Using license plates as a context, we will analyze patterns. I will share a technique for graphing, and you will design your own license plates with given parameters. Our graphs will offer entry into transformational geometry, and a mapping from letters to numbers allows us to experience early algebra in context.
