SUMMARY:GEMS November 1st Session
DESCRIPTION:This GEMS session will be facilitated by Grace Akinwande from the Claremont Graduate University.\n\n\nTitle: From Pizza to Calculus: Understanding Area Through Approximation\n\nAbstract: How much more pizza do you really get from a larger size? In this presentation\, we explore the concept of area starting from an everyday question—the pizza dilemma! We’ll review basic geometric areas and extend the idea to regions bounded by curves. Using simple rectangular approximations\, we’ll discover how increasing the number of rectangles improves accuracy and leads us naturally to the concept of limits. By connecting geometry\, algebra\, and reasoning\, this session illustrates how real-world problems can introduce fundamental ideas of calculus in a fun and intuitive way.
