PROJECT #1 – DESIGNING A MATH LOGO
Project Description:
The goal of this project is to have you create a math logo that can be used to identify your
math class. You will learn that various images from chapter 1 can be used to design your
logo. When designing your logo, you should choose various shapes, patterns, symbols,
numbers or terms and describe the reasons why each of these elements is part of the logo.
Completing the Unit Project:
Now, you are ready to make your math logo. Your group can work together to make one
cover to display or you can all make individual versions of your group logo.
1. On the back, you need to explain what the patterns, symbols, numbers, and
shapes in your logo represent. Tell why you think your design identifies math
class the best. Do not use a symbol that you cannot explain.
Rubric:
20 – The logo design uses patterns, symbols, numbers, and shapes in a way that is
mathematically accurate. The written description and explanation for each element of the
design identifies the math class are insightful. The logo is visually clear and appealing
and may also be enlarged for use on a poster or reduced on a bookmark.
15 - The logo design uses the mathematics adequately. The written description and
explanation of the design element is not through as it could be. The visual effect of the
logo is not entirely clear.
10 – The logo design uses the mathematical elements in an incomplete or somewhat
confusing manner. The description of each element of the design is incomplete. The
reasons describing why this design identifies the math class are lacking or need more
elaboration.
5 – This project is illegible, incomplete, or not understandable.
