It represents a change in the way that scientists "do science". It provides new tools to describe, model, analyze, and measure the natural world, and wonderful new connections within the world of mathematics. Fractal geometry is exciting, visual, relevant to many disciplines, and lends itself naturally to technology supported activities. Both students and teachers with relatively little mathematical background can approach a large number of current research problems in this area and appreciate the integration across traditional disciplines. Experience. Goals. Based on the success, experience, and discoveries of our 1995-98 NSF project, our current program expands the geographic reach of the program to the eight urban and rural counties of south Florida: Broward, Collier, Miami-Dade, Hendry, Lee, Martin, Monroe, and Palm Beach.
