Rate My Professor Thomas Cooper

Cooper specializes in mathematics education and teaches a variety of undergraduate mathematics courses along with classes for aspiring teachers, including CSCI 2100, which focuses on using technology to promote mathematical understanding. His research explores geometry, dissections, origami mathematics, and technology integration in teaching, such as GeoGebra applications. Key publications include "The relationship between a convex quadrilateral’s semi-excircles and diagonals" in the International Journal of Geometry (2025, 14(1), 82–91); "Finagling a Nagel point in taxicab geometry and beyond" in Mathematics Magazine (2024); "Proof without Words: Bisecting a Quadrilateral’s Perimeter" in The College Mathematics Journal (2023, 55(2), 161); "Lindgren’s dodecahedron to square dissection" in The Fold (2023); "Using GeoGebra to create randomized practice problems with feedback" in the Proceedings of the 2022 International Conference on Technology in Collegiate Mathematics; "Exploring volumes with GeoGebra Dissection Models" in the 2021 ICTCM Proceedings; "Truncated trigonal trapezohedrons and special pentagons" in The Fold (2021); and "Paper pyramids and volumes" in Math Horizons (2020, 28(1), 18–21). Cooper's work enhances both theoretical insights in geometry and practical pedagogical tools.
