Proudly presented by Dr. Norma Boakes & the students of GNM 2257 The Art & Math of Origami
Table of Contents
I am a professor at Stockton University. I created this book as a way to feature the artwork of students in one of the courses I teach in our General Studies curriculum called "The Art & Math of Origami". Normally, I host an actual show on campus! Due to the pandemic, I made the decision to shift to a completely virtual format.
If you don't know about Stockton University yet, I recommend checking out our website! We are ranked among the top public universities in the Northeast . Our campus is about 1 hour from Philadelphia and two hours from New York City! As you can see from the photo, the main campus is surrounded by 1,600 acres within the Pineland National Reserve. We recently added a beach-side campus in Atlantic City, only a ten minute drive from our main campus in Galloway!
I hope you enjoy perusing the book I've created! Thank you for helping me highlight the work of my students in this course.
Sincerely,

The Origami art featured in this book was prepared by students in the course, GNM 2257 The Art & Math of Origami. Through this course, students explore the art of Origami including the language, notation, and its use as a form of artistic expression. Within this process, interdisciplinary connections are made to several areas including culture, history, and mathematics.
This book features each student's personal Origami collection. A student is responsible to select the models and create them on their own. Within this process, students are given five categories they must relate models to including:
- a mathematical model
-a model made of unique material
-a challenging model (for their level)
-a model of choice (just for fun or because it has meaning)
-a model they instruct to others

Colors
The next several pages features our themed collection of Origami art. The theme is selected and illustrated by the students in assigned teams. Their challenge is to express the theme through Origami. This year's theme is colors!
Though we were not able to produce the full size displays that are normally part of an actual art show on campus, I thought students found a way to still express their theme and personality!
