Geometry is a very good way to advance a student's logical thinking and maths maturity.
Advanced students may find it useful to focus on the proofs of theorems here whereas beginners should be aware of the issues in the proof but focus on the main ideas.
Geometry is a subject dear to many mathematicians but at the same time it has been all but removed from the school syllabus in Australia. How can this be so?
Euclid's Elements was originally the canon for geometry dating back to antiquity. Now we have Geometry revisited which aimed to update some of the progress in geometry since then.
Instead of the updating of textbooks because it was out of date, it was just abolished because it was too hard for the teachers to teach. This won't stop me though and I have recently started my own Dr Michael Sun's School of Maths to address these issues in education. We look for old and new proofs of topics for complete theoretic treatments as well as try to solve interesting problems individually and as a class.
