Exclusion And Inclusion Processes In Mathematics Classrooms: Reflections On Difference, Normality And Cultural Issues Within Three Different Contexts, Thiago Donda Rodrigues, Fernanda Malinosky Coelho Da Rosa, Alan Pereira Manoel

The Mathematics Enthusiast

The Education for All proposal is an international document substantiating some approved national laws aimed at providing high-quality education for all: peasants, quilombolas, indigenous, landless individuals, women, people with disabilities, among others. However, when it comes to inclusion and School Mathematics , regardless of all advances in the Mathematical Education field, this subject remains formally introduced and taught, it still disregards the concept of teaching all, since it is inaccessible to most students. The aim of the current article is to reason on cultural , normality and difference issues, as well as on practices observed in the School Mathematics …

Spaces, Movements And Topological Notions, What Do The Babies' Cartographies Show?, Jenny Patricia Acevedo-Rincón, Gabriela Guarneri De Campos Tebet

The Mathematics Enthusiast

In the first months of life, babies develop visual perception. The notions of space evolve in the everyday of experiences, the recognition of the self through your body, and relationships with others. The topological notions developed by babies correspond to closeness, proximity, continuity and separation. As babies grow, their skills are developed both in the projective space and in the geometric space. These even influence the baby's development in an integral way. This article intends to present results of the topological notions of closure, proximity separation and projections in the baby’s space. This qualitative research is developed under a descriptive …

High-Mountain Hazards In The Indian Himalaya: An Assessment Of The Causes And Effects Of The Chamoli Flood In 2021, Christina Maria Salzmann

University of Montana Conference on Undergraduate Research (UMCUR)

On 7 February 2021, a cascade of events severely impacted the mountainous river valleys in India’s northwestern District of Chamoli. A bedrock failure beneath a hanging glacier on Ronti Peak released an ice rock avalanche, which in turn resulted in a flood. Widespread devastation, complete destruction of two hydropower projects and more than 200 fatalities were the outcome. The purpose of this study was to assess some of the causes and effects of the flood. I used Planet© satellite imagery to assess potential causes and visualize the extent of the disaster. Using two high-resolution Digital Elevation Models (DEMs), I created …

Women And Water In Mountain Communities: Interactions Between Resource Access And Gender-Based Development, Jenna Mccrorie

University of Montana Conference on Undergraduate Research (UMCUR)

Potable water and safe sanitation services are some of the most crucial resources to communities all around the globe. Currently, as many as 2.2 billion people lack access to safely managed drinking water, and it is predicted that 1.8 billion people will be living in countries with absolute water scarcity by 2025. This indispensable resource and lifeblood of civilization originates in the “water towers of the world”: mountains. It is estimated that over half of the human population relies on major streams and rivers flowing out of mountainous areas. Communities in these areas face serious challenges when there is not …

Assessing The Role Of Time And Beavers In Driving Recovery Following Restoration, Daylen Egger, Claire Shady, Shawnalee Voyles, Kory Shoja-Chaghorvand

University of Montana Conference on Undergraduate Research (UMCUR)

The role of time as an important factor in restoration of riparian ecosystems toward a reference state is well known. Ecosystem engineers, such as beaver, can have substantial influences on ecosystem characteristics, and thus they may play a large role in ecosystem recovery, however the role of beavers in altering the rate of ecosystem recovery is not well described. In this study, we monitored the recovery of vegetation and soil characteristics at Ninemile Creek in western Montana. This site has been highly degraded by historic placer mining, which resulted in a stream channel bounded by ten-meter-high gravel piles, eliminating the …

An Analysis Of Community And Stakeholder Participation In An Environmental Conflict: The Controversial Proposed Black Butte Copper Project, Smith River Basin, Eliza A. Maleski

University of Montana Conference on Undergraduate Research (UMCUR)

This paper presents an analysis of a current social-environmental conflict regarding a proposed copper mining project in Montana’s Smith River Basin. The research presented seeks to assess the involvement of the Meagher County Stewardship Council in the conflict and their role as a community group comprised of many stakeholders. The proximity of the Black Butte Copper Project to the widely cherished Smith River has raised concerns from a wide variety of environmental and social groups and has brought attention to the plans and actions of Sandfire Resources and their impact as a mining company on the rural community of Meagher …

Genetic And Seasonal Determinants Of Vitamin D Status In Confederated Salish And Kootenai Tribes (Cskt) Participants, Jack W. Staples, Kathleen M. George, Rachel Dalton, Erin E. Ellerbeck, Genevieve Krause, Tianna Lietch, Theresa Aliwarga, Matthew G. Mcdonald, Brian Phillips, Leeanna I. Muzquiz, Deborah A. Nickerson, Timothy A. Thornton, Kenneth E. Thummel, Erica L. Woodahl

UM Graduate Student Research Conference (GradCon)

Background: Vitamin D is a hormone produced in the skin upon ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation. Vitamin D is a crucial regulator of calcium and phosphate levels for bone mineralization and other physiological roles. Vitamin D levels vary globally in human populations due to genetics, geography, and other demographic factors. It is estimated that 20-85 % of the variability in vitamin D levels is driven by genetic variation. To improve our understanding of contributors to vitamin D levels, we conducted a candidate-gene study in partnership with the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes (CSKT).

Methods: We recruited 472 CSKT study participants on …

Predicting Huckleberry Habitat Using Species Distribution Models, Rebekah Brassfield

UM Graduate Student Research Conference (GradCon)

Geographic distribution of plants and animals is determined by a variety of overlapping habitat factors like soil type, elevation, or canopy cover. Understanding the complicated interactions between these factors and the impacts they have on species’ distributions is increasingly important in the face of changing environments and climates. Species distribution models (SDM) measure the importance of habitat variables in determining the spatial distribution of certain species. Because SDMs include a variety of habitat variables, they can be used to answer questions about habitat suitability, predict future distributions, and inform conservation efforts.

Responding To Diversity With More Than Simple Lip-Service, Donna L. Miller

The Montana English Journal

Using contentious topics like those addressed in Joe Limer’s poem “White Hollywood” as catalysts for sparking conversations on complex social issues has potential to raise social consciousness and to support collaborative conversation. Miller’s GREEN APPLE acronym guides teachers and learners in honoring diversity and nurturing social justice. In critical race theory fashion, GREEN APPLE questions enable students of all races and ethnicities to have informed, productive conversations about the forces that have shaped, and continue to shape, the society in which they live.

Listening To Images: Creating Disruptions & Building Community, Allison Wynhoff Olsen

The Montana English Journal

As humans we empathize through stories, and images foster human connectivity and represent understandings of and experiences in place. Teachers can empower students by listening with our eyes and our ears. This talk examines images and foregrounds the use of creative and revision processes that add nuance and build community.
