    After you register for the internet section of Math 1314, you will receive a login, password, and syllabus at your initial meeting with the instructor. This will allow you to access the college algebra material on the server. We will discuss course mechanics and in particular, spend some time in dealing with the question of how to communicate mathematical material over the internet. This article outlines some of the problems and how we deal with them at Ranger College. In a regular classroom, math is communicated by grabbing a sheet of paper and writing the appropriate symbols. The instructor generally does this on a blackboard. However, many of the symbols we use frequently in math are not available on the computer keyboard, and so some other method must be employed to communicate electronically. Here are some possibilities: 1. Take the sheet of paper and simply send it by fax! Of course, this technique requires both sender and receiver to have a fax machine available at all times and bypasses the internet altogether. 2. Scan the handwritten sheet, create a graphic file, and attach it to email. The problem here is that the graphic file may be huge, and this would present a bandwidth problem if either party had a slow connection.

    This course introduces students majoring in mathematics, computer science, and related fields to the techniques used by professional science writers to communicate technical subjects to the public. Students enrolled in the course hone their writing skills through weekly assignments. They gain exposure, through guest speakers, to varied careers that combine knowledge of mathematics or science with an ability to communicate technical material to nonscientists, scientists in other fields, and colleagues. The course also provides students with an understanding of how news media cover mathematics and science and how they, as future mathematicians, scientists, engineers, and educators can contribute to the public understanding of mathematics and science. The emphasis is on clear, accessible writing and the development of a style that may be useful for term papers, abstracts, journal articles, theses, dissertations, technical reports, proposals, instruction manuals, and presentations. Classroom discussions, student presentations, and case studies are important components of the course. MATH 4827/5827, Spring 2008

    Math on the Web: A Status Report
    July, 2001
    Focus: Distance Learning
    by Robert Miner and Paul Topping, Design Science, Inc. The six months since the last Status Report have seen steady incremental improvement in support for Math on the Web. There has been some progress with browser support, and more activity with authoring tools. However, some of the most notable developments have been in the area of support for math in distance learning tools. In this volume of the Status Report, we begin with a brief survey of what people are doing with math and science communication on the Web, and the techniques they are using to do it. We will then take a look at some notable Math on the Web news and announcements from the last six months. Finally, we end by taking a closer look at what has been happening in the distance learning arena.

    13. Drama And Teaching Math By Mark Wahl
    The use of drama in communicating math is one way to tap the intrapersonal and interpersonal intelligences to teach math.

    You are here: Home Teaching and Learning Strategies Arts in Education
    Drama and Teaching Math by Mark Wahl My use of the "personal" side of numbers for instruction goes all the way back to when I was working on my master's thesis in math. It required investigation of complex proofs in the University of Maryland library's musty math journals. Commonly, while picking through a baffling formula for hours, I would gradually descend into that early sleep stage known as hypnagogic, where strange dreamlike episodes often make people wake with a jerk. In my dreams the mathematical entities I was studying would begin to animate, Alice-in-Wonderland style, becoming people with mathematical traits. That is, the negative numbers became negative, the powers did "power trips," and all were all trying to do complex "operations" on each other. There was some kind of major episode going on with characters trying to resolve a problematic situation. While getting emotionally involved in this drama I would pop awake, details rapidly fading, but with a fleeting sense of having observed a complex "soap opera." Over my many years of math mentoring students of all ages I have noticed this "opera" reappear in pieces as I search for metaphors and connections that convey math concepts. For instance, when teaching addition and subtraction of negative integers, especially to preadolescents, I find that moods are the best metaphor. A -9 mood is pretty grumpy while a +20 is ecstatic.

    Mission Statement
    The Math Working Group is chartered to continue the task of facilitating the use of mathematics on the Web, both for science and technology and for education. This involves the maintenance of the recent version 2.0 of the MathML specification (W3C Recommendation, 21 February 2001), encouragement of its wider deployment, preparation of any revisions or addenda appropriate, continued liaison with other Working Groups within the W3C to ensure that the potential of MathML is realized, and relations with other organizations, all designed to strengthen the position of MathML and enhance the use of mathematics on the Web. MathML can be of value as a test case in the deployment of some of the newer W3C initiatives. This means that the use of MathML in Web documents is encouraged by the W3C, to which the MathML specification belongs, and should significantly contribute to the usefulness of the Web for science, technology and education. The continuation of the work on mathematics on the Web falls within the scope of the User Interface Domain.
    Scope
    • Maintaining and clarifying the MathML 2.0 Recommendation.

    Connecting Math: Special Projects
    TeleMath Project Kelly Vaughn , California, USA I developed a project while working as an Industry Initiatives for Science and Math Education (IISME) Fellow at the Intel Museum. It is called "TeleMath" and its purpose is for my students to accomplish the following: (1) proficiently use technology in solving math problems; (2) gain strong communication skills; (3) become motivated academically by being intimately connected with various industry and university settings. University students and industry employees serve as mentors and are paired up with students. They communicate with one another throughout the school year in the context of solving math problems and creating math projects. This network will allow my students to serve as: Disciples ~ learn from their mentors and/or field experts Peers ~ work with others students and mentors on collaborative projects Teachers ~ present their projects to their global audience via the Internet My project, "TeleMath", is the vehicle for my plan. TeleMath incorporates classroom technology, corporate community support in the classroom, and implementation of my 1997 and 1998 Industry Initiatives for Science and Math Education (IISME) Education Transfer Plans. In TeleMath, employee volunteers serve as mentors, and are paired up with students. Using e-mail and video conference, mentors and students communicate with each other in the context of solving math "Problem of the Week" and other math-related projects. The project concludes with a field trip to the mentors’ work sites.
