Abstract for the conference program
The purpose of this workshop is to provide an example of how a simple origami box can be used to explore important concepts in geometry and calculus. The mathematics behind the particular origami box and the significance of the role origami in mathematics classroom will also be addressed during the talk. As a hands-on activity, the audience will get an opportunity to create an origami box during the presentation.
