    Extractions: Teaching Today publishes innovative teaching tips on a weekly basis. Written with the busy teacher in mind, each tip is concise, practical and easy to implement in the classroom right away. Topics covered in Teaching Today are classroom management, career development, high stakes testing, instruction and planning, parental involvement, reading in the content areas, using technology in the classroom, and portfolio development. Teaching Today also offers free weekly downloads that correspond to the tips. Our free downloads make implementing the teaching tips even easier. Teaching Today provides educational resources for teachers looking for everyday solutions to the challenges of the classroom. Integrating Writing into the Mathematics Classroom Integrating writing into your mathematics classroom can be easy for you and beneficial for your students. Communicating about mathematics helps strengthen student learning, which can build deeper understanding. It provides students an opportunity to organize their thoughts related to the math topic, which helps clarify their thinking. Student writing can also provide valuable insight for you into their mastery of math concepts. Teachers can use writing assignments as either an informal or formal assessment tool. Writing often reveals gaps in learning and misconceptions, which can help inform your instructional planning and intervention strategy.

    http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/advice.html
    
    Extractions: I have reached the stage where young mathematicians and physicists sometimes ask me for advice. Here is my advice. Most of it applies to grad students and postdocs in any branch of science who seek an academic career involving research. The stuff on giving good talks will be helpful to almost all scientists, since most give pretty bad talks. Near the end I have a section on a more specialized question that vexes many students who email me: should I go into math or physics? The great challenge at the beginning of ones career in academia is to get tenure at a decent university. Personally I got tenure before I started messing with quantum gravity, and this approach has some real advantages. Before you have tenure, you have to please people. After you have tenure, you can do whatever the hell you want - so long as it's legal, and so long as your department doesn't put a lot of pressure on you to get grants. (This is one reason I'm happier in a math department than I would be in a physics department. Mathematicians have more trouble getting grants, so there's a bit less pressure to get them.) The great thing about tenure is that it means your research can be driven by your actual interests instead of the ever-changing winds of fashion. The problem is, by the time many people get tenure, they've become such slaves of fashion that they no longer know what it

66. Writing A Research Paper In Mathematics
    Writing a Research Paper in Mathematics Ashley Reiter September 12, 1995. Section 1 Introduction Why bother? Good mathematical writing, like good mathematics thinking, is a skill  
    http://web.mit.edu/jrickert/www/mathadvice.html
    
    Extractions: September 12, 1995 Section 1: Introduction: Why bother? Good mathematical writing, like good mathematics thinking, is a skill which must be practiced and developed for optimal performance. The purpose of this paper is to provide assistance for young mathematicians writing their first paper. The aim is not only to aid in the development of a well written paper, but also to help students begin to think about mathematical writing. I am greatly indebted to a wonderful booklet, "How to Write Mathematics ," which provided much of the substance of this essay. I will reference many direct quotations, especially from the section written by Paul Halmos, but I suspect that nearly everything idea in this paper has it origin in my reading of the booklet. It is available from the American Mathematical Society, and serious students of mathematical writing should consult this booklet themselves. Most of the other ideas originated in my own frustrations with bad mathematical writing. Although studying mathematics from bad mathematical writing is not the best way to learn good writing, it can provide excellent examples of procedures to be avoided. Thus, one activity of the active mathematical reader is to note the places at which a sample of written mathematics becomes unclear, and to avoid making the same mistakes his own writing. Mathematical communication, both written and spoken, is the filter through which your mathematical work is viewed. If the creative aspect of mathematics is compared to the act of composing a piece of music, then the art of writing may be viewed as conducting a performance of that same piece. As a mathematician, you have the privilege of conducting a performance of your own composition! Doing a good job of conducting is just as important to the listeners as composing a good piece. If you do mathematics purely for your own pleasure, then there is no reason to write about it. If you hope to share the beauty of the mathematics you have done, then it is not sufficient to simply write; you must strive to write

    Archive Saxon math advice Learning at Home and Beyond  
    http://www.mothering.com/discussions/archive/index.php/t-1033732.html
    
    Extractions: This year we started following the classical model, before that we had been eclectic, and very relaxed (or lazily classical, lol). For anyone that is familiar with "Teaching the Trivium", they recommended no formal math before age 10 (but lots of hands on "life math"), and then start the kids in Saxon 6/5 in 5th grade. We end nearly every math session in crying, with her saying (and writing on many pages) "I hate math!" I'm a bit torn, because part of me says. "I realize this is tough, but we need to learn it." While the other part of me says, "I don't want her to have such an awful attitude about math!". She misses between 5-12 problems consistently each day. Usually they are simple mistakes, like forgetting to add the carried numbers and such. I no longer have her do the mental math or the warm up sheets (we did start out doing it all and I really think we SHOULD be doing it), but math is taking over an hour as it is (sometimes two)! I also have her correct her missed problems.

    Extractions: math home Advice for Students Introduction Math Careers Which Option in the Major? Which of the five areas (teaching, grad school, engineering, computer science, and statistics) you choose might help determine the option in the mathematics major that suits you best. Secondary teachers would probably want the single subject waiver program; those interested in grad school would probably choose the pure major (maybe not if they already know the area of mathematics they want to emphasize in grad school); those interested in engineering would probably want the emphasis in applied mathematics and statistics; those interested in computer science would probably choose the double major in math and computer science or the emphasis in applied math and statistics; those interested in statistics would probably want the emphasis in applied math and statistics. Advising Advisors are faculty members who are knowledgeable about the program you have chosen in mathematics. It is important that you pay your advisor a visit during your first semester at CSUS, if only to make contact. It is a good idea to see your advisor frequently, for help in planning your schedule, career planning, or for other advice. It is very important that you see your advisor when you plan your upper division coursework, as there are many decisions that your advisor can help you with that are not obvious from reading the catalog (e.g., which courses take a great time commitment, which courses are better in your senior year, etc.). If you decide to change major advisors, simply get the OK from your new advisor and tell the department office about your desire to change.

    Extractions: August 6, 2010 70 Comments Geek Alert Hive Mind Story problems in math rarely overlap with story problems in screenwriting, but today I have one that I could use some help figuring out. Far away on a distant planet, an intelligent but very paranoid species is constructing a series of terrestrial watchtowers to scan the heavens, making sure no space-traveling enemies sneak up on them. You can think of these watchtowers as observatories, each one watching a 180-degree (half-sphere) swath of the sky. For this simplest version, you can ignore complications like atmospheric distortion or possible moons. Question #1: For complete coverage, what is the minimum number of watchtowers they need to build? Question #2: What would be a prudent number to build? If you want to introduce features like atmosphere or redundancy, go for it. Question #3: What is the minimum number of satellites needed? Question #4: How does the number change if the orbit radius is increased? If the field of view is increased?
