Senior Project

My idea for our senior project is a little bit odd, but I think it could be interesting. In many of the homework assignments this year, there has almost always been a puzzle of some sort on the back which relates to math, such as sudoku, chess etc. My idea is that everyone in the class, (in groups or on their own) comes up with a puzzle game based on mathematics.

I think this project could be really interesting because there could be anything from beginners mathematics all the way up until calculus, and it could teach these concepts and theories in a fun and hands-on way. I think that these puzzles could also be made out of several different materials. Some puzzles might be done on paper like sudoku, whereas others could involve entire boards and pieces such as Go.

This project might not be complex enough on its own to be considered a senior project, but I'm sure that with some work and class participation it could be turned into something really interesting. Thank you for considering my idea, I look forward to hearing feedback soon.
