dwaldron April 6th, 2009
Professor John Lindner has made his YouTube debut. In his video, he demonstrates the use of a sympodium. In the course of this, he also explains how Eratosthenes, before 194 BC, determined that the earth was spherical and estimated its circumference with remarkable accuracy. Professor Lindner’s demonstration was conducted in conjunction with the work of Wooster’s learning community studying the pedagogical effectiveness of the sympodium device. The learning community’s work is funded by a grant from the Ohio Learning network.
