Sorry, I have to get back to work. Loved the chat everyone. Thanks, @ColinTGraham #mathchat 41 minutes ago via TweetChat
Agree 100% @ColinTGraham: @Peter_Price I think dumbing down is the last thing you should do with young learners... #mathchat 43 minutes ago via TweetChat
HUGE @ColinTGraham: What role do you think learned methodology plays in perpetuating the myths about what mathematics is? #mathchat 43 minutes ago via TweetChat
Yes indeed! RT @ColinTGraham: Or do we have a responsibility to expose our learners to the independently existing mathematics? #mathchat 44 minutes ago via TweetChat
Sorry everyone; scheduled post from Hootsuite. Didn't mean to interrupt #mathchat 44 minutes ago via TweetChat
One abiding concern I have about teaching of math is trying to "simplify" for youngsters who hate it = demathifying it #mathchat about 1 hour ago via TweetChat
One teacher's story of having a video lesson accepted by TED-Ed from @Trianglemancsd ow.ly/bbpKn #edchat #mathchat about 1 hour ago via HootSuite
Or does math just exist independent of what we think? RT @mathhombre: Is math what students perceive /mathematicians believe #mathchat about 1 hour ago via TweetChat
Naturally, the maths content develops progressively as students learn it, but surely its essential "mathness" doesn't? #mathchat about 1 hour ago via TweetChat
I worry about Ss who decide early math is boring @republicofmath @suburbanlion students whose perspective is more or less constant #mathchat about 1 hour ago via TweetChat
@ColinTGraham Yes, perspective affected by lots of things. I meant "what math is" doesn't need to shift when kids reach x yrs old. #mathchat about 1 hour ago via TweetChat in reply to ColinTGraham
The focus on mindless routines and filling in blanks &c @stefras @Peter_Price "Real" math? What is this magic "false" math? #mathchat about 1 hour ago via TweetChat
Not for me. @ColinTGraham: So persp on what mathematics is is related to cognitive level and what youve experienced previously? #mathchat about 1 hour ago via TweetChat
Yes! @emwdx: @ColinTGraham Those that just want to count are taking the easy way out, no? Its our job to keep them in the game. #mathchat about 1 hour ago via TweetChat
A teacher should always be unhappy about limited motivation to think @ColinTGraham @emwdx ... those who just want to count #mathchat about 1 hour ago via TweetChat
@republicofmath :) #mathchat about 1 hour ago via TweetChat in reply to republicofmath
I mean, *real math* is doable at any age. No need to wait. @republicofmath Peter, what does that mean: "To me, math is math" #mathchat about 1 hour ago via TweetChat
It's shorter. Every character counts! RT @ColinTGraham: @Peter_Price You bloody traitor, using the US math... #mathchat about 1 hour ago via TweetChat
Sounds like you are seeing a dramatic shift? RT @stefras: @ColinTGraham There is a change of perspective. Students enter math ... #mathchat about 1 hour ago via TweetChat
Sounds great! @dweksler Here's the URL for the "main" Math Circle page (they exist in different places) - bit.ly/17qlka #mathchat about 1 hour ago via TweetChat
