Multimodal Interpretation Of Notation, Dave Hewitt, Jenni Ingram Feb 2027

Multimodal Interpretation Of Notation, Dave Hewitt, Jenni Ingram

The Mathematics Enthusiast

Challenges related to the teaching and learning of formal notation in school mathematics are widely documented, and specifically in relation to the underlying mathematical structures that the notation is intended to convey. In this article, we draw on embodied cognition to examine the interactions among three students working with the software Grid Algebra. Embodied cognition emphasises the role of gesture and movement in learning and understanding mathematics. Grid Algebra uses movement to direct students’ attention to mathematical operations on numbers and numerical expressions within the grid and the structure of these operations, while the software takes care of the …


From Uncertainty To Dialogue: Visualising Collaborative Noticing And Mathematical Intuitions In Students' Narratives Within Probability Learning, Daniela Diaz-Rojas Feb 2027

From Uncertainty To Dialogue: Visualising Collaborative Noticing And Mathematical Intuitions In Students' Narratives Within Probability Learning, Daniela Diaz-Rojas

The Mathematics Enthusiast

This study explores the critical role of language and communication in fostering collaborative noticing practices that display mathematical intuitions within probability learning. Through an analysis of student interactions, I show how the joint articulation of ideas and the exploration of shared doubt enable intuition, often perceived as an object that is held and a solitary experience, to become a socially shared and co-constructed process. The observed collaborative dialogue concerns shared content and form, constructing a joint narrative architecture that enables common understanding and allows the group to notice, examine, and reshape their intuitions. Collaborative noticing when working with probability problems …


Affectivity As A Form Of Communication During Interactions Between Parent, Child, And Touchcounts, Qiang Lin Feb 2027

Affectivity As A Form Of Communication During Interactions Between Parent, Child, And Touchcounts, Qiang Lin

The Mathematics Enthusiast

This qualitative study examines communication in family mathematics settings, focusing on how embodied communication is constituted during parent–child interaction with a multitouch technology application, TouchCounts. Moving beyond information–transmission perspectives, the study adopts an embodied and relational approach centered on affectivity—conceptualized as the circulation of attunement, resonance, and intensity of movement and feeling across human and non-human components of the parent–child–TouchCounts assemblage. Drawing on close qualitative analysis of two selected video-recorded excerpts, the study traces how mathematical events unfold moment by moment through bodily action and material engagement, and how affective flow shapes how participants respond to one …


Book Review: Mathematical Geography In The Eighteenth Century: Euler, Lagrange And Lambert, Bharath Sriraman Feb 2027

Book Review: Mathematical Geography In The Eighteenth Century: Euler, Lagrange And Lambert, Bharath Sriraman

The Mathematics Enthusiast

This review examines Mathematical Geography in the Eighteenth Century: Euler, Lagrange and Lambert, edited by Renzo Caddeo and Athanase Papadopoulos (Springer, 2022), a volume bringing together ten historical and mathematical essays alongside complete English translations of six foundational memoirs on cartography by Euler (four), Lagrange (one), and Lambert (one). The review assesses the volume’s mathematical depth across its core topics: Euler’s system of differential equations establishing the non-existence of perfect maps, the derivation of the Mercator and conformal projections via partial differential equations, Lagrange’s introduction of the Cauchy–Riemann equations and holomorphic functions into cartographic theory, and Lambert’s construction of …

Do Psychotherapists Harm?, Stewart Justman Oct 2026

Do Psychotherapists Harm?, Stewart Justman

Global Humanities and Religions Faculty Publications

Perhaps the salient peculiarity of the American Psychological Association’s Code of Conduct is its virtually complete lack of prescriptive language—its aversion to binding terms and moral obligation. The code is very reluctant to tell psychologists what to do, though not reluctant to idealize what they already do. It plays right into the hands of the well-intentioned therapist who has no conception of him- or herself as a person capable of doing harm. Only in a utopia do people behave as they are supposed to, but without being subject to obligation or prohibition.

Chapter 6: Dragon's Breath Sauce, Garon C. Smith Oct 2026

Chapter 6: Dragon's Breath Sauce, Garon C. Smith

G. Wiz’s Book of Spells

Dragon’s Breath Sauce is a collection of fun things to do with liquid nitrogen. The chapter title comes from using the cryogenic fluid to chill Cheetos Puffcorn to -321 degrees Fahrenheit and then eating them at this temperature. When popped in a saliva-moistened mouth, the cold causes the moisture in one’s breath to condense into fog. Breathing out releases a cloud that can be imagined as smoke from a fire-breathing dragon. In addition, liquid nitrogen offers a chance for audience members to briefly immerse their hand in a pool of watery-looking fluid, yet pull it out instantly and completely dry. …

The Storm Of A Century – Separation Of Powers In The United States In 2025, Anna C. Conley Sep 2026

The Storm Of A Century – Separation Of Powers In The United States In 2025, Anna C. Conley

Faculty Law Review Articles

Separation of powers in the United States is experiencing an unprecedented stress test. The Framers’ design envisioned three co-equal branches whose “ambition” would defensively counteract encroachment by other branches. In 2025, however, this structure is destabilized by an overly aggressive Executive, a subservient Congress, and a fractionalized Judiciary. The Executive’s unprecedented encroachment on legislative power and disregard for institutional restraint is a result of: (1) the U.S. Supreme Court’s (“the Court”) adherence to the unitary executive theory, under which the President has unfettered control over the entire executive branch, (2) Congress’ unwillingness to check the Executive, and (3) the Court’s …

The Topology Of Simple Games, Leah Valentiner, Ismar Volić Sep 2026

The Topology Of Simple Games, Leah Valentiner, Ismar Volić

The Mathematics Enthusiast

We initiate the study of simple games from the point of view of combinatorial topology. The starting premise is that the losing coalitions of a simple game can be identified with a simplicial complex. Various topological constructions and results from the theory of simplicial complexes then carry over to the setting of simple games. Examples are cone, join, and the Alexander dual which have interpretations as familiar game-theoretic notions and objects such as the arithmetic of games and dual games. We also provide some new topological results about simple games, most notably in applications of homology of simplicial complexes to …


The Irrationality Of The California Gubernatorial Recall System, Wesley H. Hollday, Eric Pacuit Sep 2026

The Irrationality Of The California Gubernatorial Recall System, Wesley H. Hollday, Eric Pacuit

The Mathematics Enthusiast

We analyze California’s gubernatorial recall system using basic ideas from the mathematical theory of social choice. We expose some pathologies of the system, use computer simulations to explore how often these pathologies might occur, investigate the effects of strategic voting on the analysis, and suggest changes to the system that cure the pathologies.
