W P Milne Lecture for Sixth Formers

The Mathematics of Paper with Katie Steckles

The humble sheet of paper has almost infinite mathematical potential. Join mathematician Katie Steckles as she demonstrates some of her favourite mathematical concepts and shares some puzzles using both real and imaginary pieces of paper. Materials will be provided to join in from your seat, as Katie reveals the mathematical secrets hiding in household stationery.

Katie Steckles is a mathematician based in Manchester, who gives talks and workshops and writes about mathematics. She finished her PhD in 2011, and since then has talked about maths at universities, schools events, festivals, on BBC radio and TV, in books and on the internet.

The W. P. Milne lecture is included in the Key Stage 5 Maths Day at the University of Leeds. Visit www.stem.leeds.ac.uk/ks5mathsday for more details.
