Dear Colleagues, Friends, & Supporters,
We hope you had a wonderful summer. Christine von Renesse enjoyed collaborating with the Budapest Semesters in Mathematics Education (BSME) Program in Hungary and teachers in Neuruppin, Germany on ideas of inquiry.
In this month's blog, Julian Fleron showcases a powerful piece of mathematical art that he and his students worked on during Spring 2018.
Dear Colleagues, Friends, & Supporters,
We just facilitated IBL workshops at Holyoke Community College (MA) and the north-eastern MAA meeting. It was wonderful to connect with colleagues close by. We are excited to work with a group of colleagues toward a regional IBL community. We are planning a day-long IBL conference in New England in the fall. If you are interested in being involved with a regional IBL community, send us an email!
Dear Colleagues, Friends, & Supporters,
Volker Ecke and Christine von Renesse just came back from facilitating an IBL workshop at Jackson College, MI. It was wonderful to work with a mathematics department that is so committed to excellence in teaching and community building. Thanks also to Nina White for co-facilitating!
Jo Boaler’s YouCubed.org site features two interesting classroom videos (an eight minute video and a four minute shorter version) showing students in her “Computational and Mathematical Engineering Class: How to Learn Mathematics” sharing their ideas about the Pennies and Paperclips game which is featured in our Discovering the Art of Mathematics: Patterns book.
