Student Blogging Guidelines by Kim Cofino - 0 views

  • 1. Only post things that you would want everyone (in school, at home, in other countries) to know. Ask yourself: Is this something I want everyone to see? 2. Do not share personal information. Ask yourself: Could someone find me (in real life) based on this information? 3. Think before you post. Ask yourself: What could be the consequences of this post? 4. Know who you’re communicating with. Ask yourself: Who is going to look at this, and how are they going to interpret my words? 5. Consider your audience and that you’re representing ISB. Ask yourself: Do I have a good reason/purpose to do this? 6. Know how to give constructive feedback. Ask yourself: What will I cause by writing this post? 7. Treat other people the way you want to be treated. Ask yourself: Would I want someone to say this to me? 8. Use appropriate language and proper grammar and spelling. Ask yourself: Would I want this post to be graded for proper grammar and spelling? 9. Only post information that you can verify is true (no gossiping). Ask yourself: Is this inappropriate, immature or bullying? 10. Anytime you use media from another source, be sure to properly cite the creator of the original work. Ask yourself: Who is the original creator of this work? Commenting Guidelines As a blogger, you will be commenting on other people’s work regularly. Good comments

dy/dan » Blog Archive » DLB On Real-World Context - 2 views

  • It's interesting because these problems — speaking of context — aren't really contextualized. We're not making them into fake cakes or breads or anything. They really are just shaded rectangles. And the kids are finding them very challenging and interesting. So I do think, on the question of context, it's worth remembering that mathematics itself is a context and that puzzle-like problems are often both very engaging for kids and good equalizers because kids looking at those diagrams aren't shaped by some of those same inequities about kids' experiences.

TED Blog | Benoit Mandelbrot and his legacy - 0 views

  • We’re honored to have had him speak at the first TED, in 1984, and at the most recent TED in Long Beach, where he talked about his life’s work: studying fractals and roughness, and helping the world understand how fractal math underpins both nature and art. Mandelbrot was, as TED’s curator, Chris Anderson, wrote this morning, “an icon who changed how we see the world.” This playlist celebrates his work in his own words and through those whose work was inspired by his insights.
  • Benoit Mandelbrot has died, at 85
