Sequence
Leonardo Pisano

Fibonacci
Fibonacci sequence was
introduced to the Western
world by Leonardo of Pisa,
an Italian mathematician,
who is commonly known as
Fibonacci.
• In 1202, Fibonacci published a book called
Liber Abaci (The Book of Calculation), which
introduced the sequence while solving a
problem about rabbit population growth.

Though Fibonacci popularized the sequence in


Europe, it had already been studied in ancient
India in connection with Sanskrit poetry and
patterns in music.
Applications of the Fibonacci Sequence
The Fibonacci sequence is found in many real-world
phenomena:
• 1. Nature and Biology
• The number of petals in many flowers follows the
Fibonacci sequence (e.g., lilies have 3 petals,
buttercups have 5, and daisies have 34 or 55).

Activity: "Golden Ratio Digital Collage"

Objective:
To design a digital collage using the Golden Ratio diagram, demonstrating an
understanding of its mathematical and artistic applications. Students will create
their design digitally, print the final output, and submit both the soft copy
(digital file) and hard copy (printed version).
Activity: "Golden Ratio Digital Collage"
Materials Needed:
• Graphic Design Software: Canva, Photoshop, PowerPoint, Google Drawings,
Figma, or any preferred design tool.
• Golden Ratio Grid Template (Fibonacci rectangles or spirals – provided or
created by students).
• Digital Images or Graphics: Personal photos
• Computer or Tablet: For digital editing and designing.
• Printer: To produce a high-quality printed version of the final design.
Activity: "Golden Ratio Digital Collage"
Instructions:

1.Create a Digital Canvas


1. Open your chosen design software (Canva, Photoshop, PowerPoint, Google Drawings, etc.).
2. Set up a canvas with a Golden Ratio grid template (can be provided by the teacher or created
manually using Fibonacci proportions).

2.Design Your Collage


1. Select images, shapes, and elements that follow the Golden Spiral or Fibonacci Rectangles.
2. Arrange elements strategically so that the main focal points follow the Golden Ratio proportions.
3. Ensure balance, symmetry, and harmony in the overall composition.
Activity: "Golden Ratio Digital Collage"
Instructions:
Finalize and Export
• Make necessary adjustments for alignment, color harmony, and aesthetics.
• Save the file in PNG, JPEG, or PDF format for printing.
Print and Submit
• Print the final digital collage on high-quality paper (A4 or preferred size).
• Submit both the printed version and the soft copy (via GC).
Presentation & Reflection
• Include a short written explanation describing how the Golden Ratio was
applied in your design.
