  1. Susan's comments on your write-up and presentation:

    Excellent write-up, with good examples and biographical material. I enjoyed your explanation of this slightly different geometrical way of completing the square! Your critical thinking about the project and the new project you have developed are coherent with your presentation, so see below for further comment:


    Feda, Mathew, Niyaz: Ghostly presence of famous mathematicians (a)

    Al Khwarizmi – good research! (Thanks for the Arabic language notes as well!) I’ll read more about this on the blog.

    Great powerpoint! Good participation by all members of your group in the presentation.

    Very thoughtful assessment of the project – great critical thinking! I like the way you have thought about it from both the student and teacher points of view. Your criticisms are certainly valid!

    Modifications of project: great ideas. I really like the idea of carrying out interviews with famous mathematicians -- much more live and interactive.

    I like the fact that you did a sample skit, interviewing Al-Khwarizmi.

    Overall mark: Excellent!
