Math Circle: Category Theory


Facilitator: Rodi Steinig
Ages: 10-14
Day, Time, & Location: Thursdays, 3:30-4:45pm, Cope House
Length & Dates: 10/25-12/6 (6 weeks, 75-minute sessions, 7.5 hours total, no class on Thanksgiving)

Curriculum

Mathematician Eugenia Cheng describes category theory as “the mathematics of mathematics.” Inspired by Cheng’s book “How to Bake Pi,” we will do activities that use abstract mathematics to see, understand, and generalize the defining structure of things. And by “things” I mean mathematical things, logical things, and social phenomena. Visit her website (eugeniacheng.com) for a preview.

There are changes on the horizon at Talking Stick. We are reorganizing due to the pandemic and are planning in-person programming (Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays; 9am to 3pm) for 4 to 10 year olds as Harmony Learning Community at Awbury this fall. Registration opens in May. Please check back soon for details or email Katie at [email protected] with questions.

While Math Circle will not be held in conjunction with Talking Stick at this time, Rodi will continue to run classes and can be reached at [email protected].
