And in case you weren't able to be there, or would like to review what we talked about, here is the link to the video of the session. (We started the recording after we had taken a few minutes to check in with each other).
We talked about some practicalities of the course:
- How the course is going for people
- More about the final course project expectations
- **NOTE: Draft projects are due between March 4 and 11
Rationale: The original due date was March 11... then we switched it to March 4 so that there would be time to get feedback and make changes. But since there was some confusion between these two dates, it is ok if you hand in your project draft any time between March 4 and March 11. (If you hand it in earlier, you will get earlier feedback.)
Then we took some time to discuss the affordances and constraints (i.e., the new possibilities and the limitations and difficulties) of bringing the arts, embodied learning and the outdoors into our math teaching, with students of all ages.
There was also a reminder that next Sunday, March 3 from 10:00 - 11:30 AM Vancouver time, you are invited to participate in the monthly DMAM (Dance, Movement Arts & Math) international online discussion group. This group is an offshoot of the Bridges Math and Art conference, led by Dr. Karl Schaffer, and has been active every month since the summer of 2021 during the pandemic. I find it a very interesting, creative and thought-provoking meeting every month, with discussion, sometimes presentation, and sometimes activities to try out. This week's Zoom link is listed below. If you would like to join the DMAM mailing group, regardless of whether you can make next Sunday's meeting, please email me and I will let Karl know you'd like to be on the list!
