Students And Their Learning From Reading, Chris Fenwick
Students And Their Learning From Reading, Chris Fenwick
Humanistic Mathematics Network Journal
My aim in this article is to summarize work I have done over the last three years, focusing on the issue of helping students learn from whatever mathematics text they read. Although these types of texts generally contain 3 modes of communication, namely technical English, the language of mathematics itself and diagrams, I will focus this article only on the technical English of such texts. The idea, then, that students can develop techniques and strategies for learning from what they read is generally known as “reading to learn.”
Problems In Which Given Information Is Ignored, Howard Wachtel
Problems In Which Given Information Is Ignored, Howard Wachtel
Humanistic Mathematics Network Journal
A set of problems is presented and discussed for which there is a tendency for students to ignore part of the given information in the problem and to substitute some extraneous assumptions. Typical student reactions are also discussed.

Senior Seminar: A Capstone Course In The Computer And Mathematical Sciences, Ken Oberhoff, Ron Barnes
Senior Seminar: A Capstone Course In The Computer And Mathematical Sciences, Ken Oberhoff, Ron Barnes
Humanistic Mathematics Network Journal
This paper describes the evolution of a course developed to tie together many strands of activity encountered by students in the computer and mathematical sciences (CMS). The senior level course is required of all majors in our computer science, applied mathematics and statistics undergraduate degree programs. One of the primary purposes of the course is to refine writing and presentation skills needed for those who will later pursue individual research projects. Writing projects are organized around the theme of “Ethical Decision Making in the Computer and Mathematical Sciences”. Numerous case studies are investigated. Additional topics in the course include designing …

Is Mathematics Education Taking A Step Backward?, Frances Kuwahara Lang
Is Mathematics Education Taking A Step Backward?, Frances Kuwahara Lang
Humanistic Mathematics Network Journal
This article addresses the current political, socioeconomic, and educational state of mathematics education in California. The “back-to-basics” movement in mathematics mirrors the “back-to-phonics” movement in language arts. At a time when ethnic minorities have become the majority, the dominant culture has chosen to revert back to practices that are inequitable and empower the elite. Critical educators must carry on the dialogue necessary to empower the disenfranchised mathematically and undermine the social injustice and economic inequality that will result if this movement is embraced.
