Abstract

Foldingpaper and creating different shapes is an art known asOrigami. Certain paper models contain hundreds of folds anda few complex models in fact require two or three differentlyfolded shapes to be attached together. Maththrough Origami is an adventure to see as it literally'unfolds' before the eyes of the student. This explorationhelps to clarify abstract concepts in Math in an enjoyableway. Engineering curriculum specifically of first year Engineering Graphicscontains some basic mathematical, geometrical curves such as Ellipse, Parabola, Hyperbola, Cycloids etc. These curves are included in the curriculum of engineering by the objective of introductionto mathematical curves.Students coming to engineering from Non-Englishschools and colleges find it difficult to understand the geometrical concepts especiallymathematical curves mentioned above. Our study specifically highlights the learning dis-ability of the students for the curves andaids the teaching by using origami, paper folding techniques. Also acouple of examples illustrated showing the use of origami to teach Engineering Curves
