I-MATH Getting Started You may recall the four important concepts of I-MATH, Imagination,Investigation, Interaction, and Illumination. I can assume that you already have a good imagination, and are looking for ways to increase your creativity and to learn new methods of teaching, learning and communicating, because you are taking this class! We will come back to this topic soon. Because of the importance of these words, they will be part of the header of each page. Please feel free to skip over them whenever you like. Imagination: thinking outside the box, thinking creatively, dreaming up new projects and new methods of teaching, learning, and communicating) Investigation: hands-on exploration of mathematics - what can you discover? where do your discoveries lead? what connections are there? Interaction: collaboration with colleagues and with students - communicating, questioning, listening, gaining knowledge and new ideas Illumination: discovering principles, connections and applications across the curriculum and in "real life", communicating what you have learned. AN IMPORTANT NOTE: The four keywords in I-MATH, Investigation, Imagination, Interaction and Illumination are intertwined. One does not come before or after the other. But, practically speaking, we must do one thing and then another. So there may be some repetition, and we may need to "jump around" a bit in these web pages. Fortunately, linking makes these "jumps" easy. So please accept this as part of I-MATH, and keep good notes in your journal so that you will not lose track.

I-MATH Interaction Imagination: thinking outside the box, thinking creatively, dreaming up new projects and new methods of teaching, learning, and communicating) Investigation: hands-on exploration of mathematics - what can you discover? where do your discoveries lead? what connections are there? Interaction: collaboration with colleagues and with students - communicating, questioning, listening, gaining knowledge and new ideas Illumination: discovering principles, connections and applications across the curriculum and in "real life", communicating what you have learned. In I-MATH, we will interact with each other via email and Global Chat. We will be in constant communication via email, and everyone should check their email on a daily basis and try to respond as quickly as possible, especially to urgent messages. You can download Global Chat from the E-School home page. We will meet once a month on Global Chat, at a time that we can all agree one, for one hour. Each participant will keep an online journal, and write entries frequently. These journal entries should include your questions as you proceed through the GSP Labs and other activities of this class, your thoughts and suggestions, your reflections on your learning, and especially ideas that you have for integrating what you are learning into your teaching. This online journal will become one of the greatest resources we have, for each other and for ourselves. Students can also benefit greatly from opportunities to interact. When students work together, whether they are working on their homework, or on a collaborative project, they benefit from the interaction. Even just studying together for a test allows opportunities to question each other, share knowledge, and practice what they have learned. Working on creative projects in small groups gives students excellent chances to learn - particularly if the project allows exploration and experimentation. Allowing students to figure things out for themselves is a very valuable learning opportunity. Therefore projects which begin with hands-on investigative opportunities (with computers or with compasses, protractors, rulers, string, mirrors, etc.) allow the greatest opportunities for discussion, questioning, even arguing - a passionate argument about what is true can be the highlight of a math class!

64. How To Write To A Member Of Congress
emath communicating with Congress. Writing to a Member of CongressOne of the best ways to communicate with your Member of Congress
http://www.ams.org/government/contact.html
Writing to a Member of Congress
One of the best ways to communicate with your Member of Congress is through a well-reasoned personal letter. Taking the time to write a letter shows sincerity and thoughtfulness. Typically, legislators respond best to their own constituents, if you are not in their district or state your letter may not make it past an intern's desk. Here are some guidelines for effective communication. Timing is important . A letter sent after Congress acts is a missed opportunity, while correspondence sent months before an issue is considered is likely to be forgotten. Be aware of the federal budget process (check the Timeline of the federal budget process ). Basically, once Congress agrees upon a final Budget Resolution, the next step is to determine funding allocations for the 13 appropriations subcommittees in each chamber. After receiving their allocations, subcommittee chairs begin drafting the legislation that will fund the agencies and programs under their jurisdiction. This usually happens in June-July and that is THE TIME to contact appropriators regarding concerns over funding for particular programs. Limit your letter to one page and one subject . Avoid scientific jargon. In the first paragraph, explain your reason for writing

Why Your Attendance at this Workshop is a MUST!
According to various studies, between 20 and 30 % of people in Canada are functionally illiterate. In many cases, people are able to hide their literacy problems because of familiarity with their job. They may even be your best workers. Canada also has a proportionally large immigration population who may struggle with both written and spoken English. And because immigration comes from all over the world, there may be no single dominant language in a food workplace. Farm operations, food service and food processing factories hire a large numbers of these new immigrants. Poor literacy, language, and numeracy skills become serious hidden barriers to success because of progressive changes in the food industry. These changes create the need to communicate HACCP, food safety systems and new technologies in a way that we can ensure they are understood. This one day course explores ways to ensure understanding of critical issues and overcome these barriers in the workplace. Jam-Packed Agenda
  • Literacy
    In this session, you'll learn the difference between total and functional literacy. You'll explore how illiteracy can exist in a country with free, universal education, and what programs are available to overcome the problem. You'll discover ways to identify potential literacy problems, find out what can be done in the workplace to minimize these problems, and see the Human Rights aspects of the issue. You'll also explore ways to communicate with and train people despite literacy problems. You'll see how to make points understandable, how to give effective tests, and how to handle the issues of the paperwork surrounding HACCP.

http://www.uctltc.org/news/2002/11/feature_3.html
Page: Unlocking Math's Mysteries: Technology Gives Students Keys to Success Engaging Students in New Ways Technology can be particularly conducive to math instruction when it helps students to visualize abstract concepts. At UC Berkeley, courses in calculus and linear algebra have been augmented by a three-hour-a-week computer lab, in which modules are designed to deepen students' understanding of the topics. Software written by department members is used with Matlab (MathWorks), a platform popular among engineers. "When you get to multidimensional problems, visualization and the ability to experiment numerically and manipulate symbols can expand students' understanding," says Calvin C. Moore, professor of mathematics and former chair of the department. "You can introduce more realistic problems that don't have simple answers." Moore was also involved in an effort to build an online math diagnostic test, aimed primarily at incoming freshmen. Students can log on, receive questions randomly assigned from a problem bank, submit their answers and obtain instant results, along with analysis indicating areas in which they need additional study or coursework, such as pre-calculus.

Mrs. McGowan's First Grade

Spring Lake, New Jersey
It's been a cold, snowy winter in Spring Lake, New Jersey! We certainly missed the opportunity to find a math problem during our outside recess time. However we did find an interesting problem right in our own "classroom community". Spring Lake is small town on the Atlantic coast, located between Philadelphia and New York City. It has a beautiful beach, lovely shops, many fun things to do, and a great school - H.W. Mountz Elementary. Of course we think our town is very special!
First graders are often amazed to find out that other places might have the same name. Washington, DC and the state of Washington are on opposite sides of the country. Right here in New Jersey, there's more than one town of Washington. With this in mind, we decided to extend our usual study of weather and record weather conditions in other "Spring Lake" communities as well as our own. Using the Internet, we found four other "Spring Lakes": in North Carolina, Missouri, Minnesota, and Michigan.
The students had previously been introduced to reading a thermometer and were able to locate the temperature readings on the weather website. They wondered how math could be used to learn more about weather. Elizabeth suggested that "...you use math to tell how fast a storm is coming". Other students thought that knowing the temperature helps to decide what to wear or do.
