Hacking through cyberspace, I have been. I’ve found “math for grownups” (http://www.mathforgrownups.com ) and “the math mom” (http://www.themathmom.com), and “elevated math.” I’m afraid I deposited my apprehensions about the Magic of Flipped Classrooms on that blog, and once again got the feeling of that void between People Who KNow and Love Math and … the […]

For a shorter reading, omit the passages in brackets 🙂 (I’ve been trying to keep better track of how I find things. This trail: Find the “tools for understanding” at PUget Sound that purports to integrate technology into math — and emphasizes that it’s *not* a curriculum, not to be used sequentially — as in, […]

I’ve uploaded that article from the International Dyslexia Association’s Perspectives on Language and Literacy. Print versions of that included a generous permission statement; now, there’s nothing to be seen. The author replied to my email saying sharing was fine with her tho’ she wasn’t sure she was the one to ask. The article doesn’t say […]

Well, not minor to me 😉 I’ve struggled with why folks who tout “throw away traditional math instruction! We need more problem-solving!” just don’t make me want to stand up and join them. For that matter, the “we need to bring back real teaching and actually have kids learn the tiems tables!” people don’t either. […]

I can’t think of the phrase without starting to sing “riding on my scraper bike,” a much more charming entity. I got a reference to my site from scoop.it and decided to check it out. I used one of my less common email addresses in case it turns out too weird for words. I can’t […]

WHat with riding home yesterday and it occurring to me (if I remember correctly, from a completely unrelated mind drift) that all this stuff I would *like* to do with the videos such as having choices to make and going someplace differently if you missed a question… could be done on plain, old, everyday web […]
