A small exhibition for MAT1500
Matemateca set up in Block B, on 12.09.2017, an exhibition for students and teachers from schools involved in the
subject of MAT1500 - Internship Projects. This course is mandatory for Mathematics Licentiate students at IME-USP and, at the same time,
public school teachers enroll in an extension course "Internship Projects: Learning Mathematics with Projects". Undergraduate students at
IME develop internship projects together with these professors and frequently visit schools to apply their projects. School students always
show interest in getting to know USP, but they think it is something very far from them. In view of this, the idea arose that a selection of
these students could come to know the IME, for an exhibition at Matemateca.
