Amazingly enough, having two days off of work because of the blizzard seems to have put me way behind this week, rather than way ahead (despite my having worked a lot during the two days “off”). I have no explanation, but I find it annoying.
Anyhow, I had plans to read all of these before posting them and subject them to some quality control, but I’m just too far behind. Caveat emptor.
These are sites that I saw in a weekly Webliography that I get from Diigo that looked interesting and all relate to math.
Dyscalcula: A Mathematical Learning Disability
Great Math Teaching Ideas: Mostly K-12, but adaptable
Math Whiteboard Strategies: Mostly for Smartboards, I think.
Math Curriculum Research: Teaching multiple methods of problem solving works best, they say
Research on Correlations of Math Skills and Life Qualities: Not surprising to anyone who knows math, but maybe to those who aren’t yet believers in its usefulness.
Thanks for this Philodave. I think I’ll need another snow day to take a look at these. For those of you interesting in math and science, HWC is hosting the Chicago Math and Science symposium series this Friday. We’ve accounted for a few walk-ins. It starts at 10:30 up in 1115.
You’re welcome, mathissexy. Let me know if any of them are terrible!
