The “Staircases” c-book was created by 5 members of Greek CoI (3 mathematicians, 2 primary school teachers). The idea that inspired the designers was the design of an environmental campaign in the math department of the University of Athens, named “Take the stairs”.
The c-book provides a series of activities aiming students to explore and investigate the properties of a staircase. Notion of slopes, rational numbers, programming and algebraic expressions linked to sequences are part of the available activities. Students have the opportunity not only to study the stairs but also to design their own staircases using 3d widgets.
