Mathematics and the Art of M.C. Escher

Class activities include lectures, group work, class discussions, and computer-aided instruction. Students study the fundamental geometric concepts in M.C. Escher's art. The purpose is to develop the students' sense of geometric intuition while they discover geometric principles. Students have the opportunity to apply their learning by creating their own geometrically inspired works of art.
