Many thanks to Planet Science for picking this as their Site of the Day for April 26, 1996. (Unfortunately, you need to register to see their stuff.) While you're here, take a look at some of my other pages , too. Sorry about the dust. Several of these pages have moved or died in the last few months, and there's lots of new stuff I need to add, but I've been busy with my real job . Thanks for your patience. Mathematicians use the words "game theory" in two different senses. The more common sense of the word includes things like the Prisoner's Dilemma, poker, the New York Stock Exchange, or other "imperfect-information" games. Research in this type of game theory makes a lots of money for a lot of people, and has even resulted in a few Nobel prizes. An introductory sketch is available at Drexel University. Those aren't the kind of mathematical games I like. Combinatorial game theory tries to analyze the outcomes of "perfect-information" games like Nim and Tic-tac-toe. More difficult real-world examples are Hex, Reversi, Mancala, Checkers, Chess, Shogi, and Go. Nancy Casey has a

Extractions: Math Resources (Geometry) Created by Stephanie Burke (Acadia University) The following resources are books about various geometry related concepts: This resource is a book all about squares. Included in this resource is everything the elementary school teacher needs to know about squares. The pages provide colourful illustrations and easy to follow directions to hands-on activities for students between the ages of 9 and 14. Some of the topics that are included in this book are as follows: area of a square, square numbers, prisms and anti-prisms, cubic architecture. This book also includes a link to literature, for example children can learn about the Delian cube legend. Also included in this book is a glossary of terms, which is very helpful. This resource is included because it gives the classroom teacher a solid base to begin a geometry unit. It provides the classroom teacher with fresh ideas and a means for understanding the concepts to introduce to the children. It also gives the teacher a range of grade levels to choose from. The teacher can easily find enrichment activities for students.
