Hilbert Curve

Objective: In this activity, students step through the generation of a Hilbert curve, a popular fractal. Students should be introduced to the idea of self-similarity as well as begin creating a working definition of fractals.

Materials: Each student will need

• Internet access to the Hilbert Curve Activity

Explorations questions for students:

1. Does this fractal look like a solid?


2. What is happening to the fractal after each step?
