In this workshop with Nikoleta Kalaydzhieva, students will explore the intriguing world of mathematical shapes, known as Topology. They will see how 3D shapes can have only one side and what interesting things you can find when you cut these shapes up. Students will also investigate ideas of orientation, what it means for two shapes to be connected, and even extend thinking out into the fourth dimension!
Please note:
Please note, this workshop is strictly for 16–18 year-olds and will include a 45 minute supervised lunch break. Students will not be able to leave the building at lunch time unless permission is given at the time of booking. Students should bring lunch and a drink, pens, pencils and a calculator.
