During November 2021, students from around the country took part in MEI’s popular Desmos Art Competition. This year, they were challenged to use the dynamic graphing tool Desmos to create art around the theme of ‘The world around us’. Entries were judged on:
- Creativity & originality
- Use of the maths you know
- Interpretation of the theme
Repeating the competition’s success from previous years, entries were exceptionally high quality and MEI would like to congratulate all students who took part.
