You will be expected to keep a learning journal to help you assess your progress. We will use cooperative group learning, discovery learning, applied critical thinking, problem solving, and self assessment regularly. You will be conscious of and able to assess your level of earning skills.
By the end of the course, you should be able to learn faster than you do now. Significant non-mathematical contents of the course include explicit awareness of learning and problem-solving skills, the development of independent learning skills, and working in project groups. Besides the explicit content (theorems, specific results) we will focus on developing experience and intuition for geometry and skill in developing and writing proofs.

It will provide a more advanced look Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometry, including development of a full axiom system for Euclidean geometry, an introduction to transformations, use of the Geometer's Sketchpad program for geometric exploration and construction (and teaching), and introductions to taxicab geometry and hyperbolic geometry. This course is intended primarily for mathematics majors who are pursuing the teaching option or who have an interest in plane geometry.
We will also be making extensive use of The Geometer's Sketchpad ® in class and for exercises. Kay, College Geometry:a discovery approach, Addison Wesley Longman, 2001.
