Investigations:
Telling Someone Where to Go
How did the Exxon Valdez get off course? How
do people navigate using compasses and angles? In this unit students
explore the mathematics of navigation in the spirit of orienteering,
the wilderness sport. Students explore angle, distance, and orientation
by using their bodies in relative directional systems, as with the computer
language LOGO instead of
using the standard directions of magnetic compasses.
