Abstract
The paper is part of the debate surrounding the possibilities for advancing the role of Mathematics within STEM education through interdisciplinary approaches. It provides an example of how high school students can engage in tasks of modelling (interdisciplinary approach) directed to promoting connections between Mathematics and ‘Drawing and History of art’. Specifically, the paper describes a teaching practice focused on the theoretical and applicative implications of the process of interpretation and constructionof the Vignola’s geometric method for laying out the Ionic volute. The study of the method makes use of drawing as a formal analysis tool in order to make the students grasp the sense of the graphic representation synthesized by the geometric model. The intuition of the geometric genesis of the model is then verified on the computer with the use of the
期刊介绍:
This journal is of a multi- and inter-disciplinary nature and covers a broad range of fields including mathematics, computer science, physics, chemistry, biology, earth sciences, and their intersection. History of science is also included within the topics addressed by the journal. The transactions of the Pelorian Academy started out as periodic news sheets containing the notes presented by the members of the Divisions into which the Academy has been and still is organized, according to subject areas. The publication of these notes for the Division (“Classe”) of Mathematical, Physical and Natural Sciences is the responsibility of the Editorial Committee, which is composed of the Director of the division with the role of Chairman, the Vice-Director, the Secretary and two or more other members. Besides original research articles, the journal also accepts texts from conferences and invited talks held in the Academy. These contributions are published in a different section of the journal. In addition to the regular issues, single monographic supplements are occasionally published which assemble reports and communications presented at congresses, symposia, seminars, study meetings and other scientific events organized by the Academy or under its patronage. Since 2004 these transactions have been published online in the form of an open access electronic journal.
