Gifted Math Program March Symposium Robotics Presentation Highlights

This video contains the highlights of presentation: "Mechanism & Robotics: Geometry in Motion" given by Dr. Krovi at the University at Buffalo's Gifted Math Program (GMP) March Symposium, on March 3, 2010.

About GMP:
The University at Buffalo Gifted Math Program (GMP) was founded in 1979 by Dr. Gerald R. Rising, SUNY Distinguished Teaching Professor Emeritus in the University's Department of Learning and Instruction and by Dr. Betty J. Krist, Professor Emerita and former chair of the Mathematics Department of Buffalo State College. Each year the program enrolls between 250 and 280 students of outstanding mathematics ability from the seventh through twelfth grades of the public, parochial, and private schools in Western New York.

The single objective of the program is to deliver to exceptional secondary school mathematics students a curriculum that challenges them in the same way that standard school curricula challenge students of lesser ability. Because there are few such students in each district, even the largest regional schools cannot serve this clientele adequately. It is this arithmetic that has led local schools to give GMP universal support. Every Erie and Niagara County secondary school has had students enrolled.
