An Art and Technology Approach to Actively Engage Students in the Mathematics of the Regular Polyhedra

摘要

The goal of the present work is two folded: At first the author demonstrates a step-by-step problem solving approach, to prove the (convex) Regular Polyhedra Theorem using Zome tools. Then the geometric constructions of some patterns for the decoration of solids using utilities such as the Geometer's Sketchpad will be presented.
