Four variations of the Koch curve are presented. In each case, the similarity dimension, area bounded by the fractal and its initiator, and volume of revolution about the initiator are calculated. A range of classroom exercises are proved to allow students to investigate the fractals further.

While research on the opportunity to learn about mathematics concepts provided by textbooks at the secondary level is well documented, there is still a paucity of similar research at the undergraduate level. Contributing towards addressing this knowledge gap, the present study examined opportunities to engage in quantitative and covariational…
