Student Research
Fireman to the Rescue! This is a flash game that demonstrates the use of locating-dominating sets in simple graphs. In this game, students progress through levels of increasing difficulty by applying logic skills within a set of simple rules. The game illustrates the application of research in mathematics to an everyday situation, while improving each student's critical thinking skills.
