A framework for analysing students? learning of function at upper secondary level: Connected Working Spaces and Abstraction in Context Giorgos Psycharis, Georgios-Ignatios Kafetzopoulos and Jean-Baptiste Lagrange Chapter 11. Challenges of making sense of tasks and automated feedback in digital mathematics textbooks Sebastian Rezat, Florian Schacht, Uta H?sel-Weide Chapter 12. Technology integration for mathematics education in developing countries, with focus on India and Mexico Ana Isabel Sacrist?n, Jeenath Rahaman, Suchismita Srinivas & Teresa Rojano Chapter 13. Aligning teaching with current experiences of being, becoming and belonging: An identity perspective on the use of digital resources Charlotte Krog Skott, Giorgos Psycharis, and Jeppe Skott Places are limited to 150, so please register early. We will operate a waiting list, so if you find yourself unable to attend, please cancel your ticket to enable someone else to attend instead.

(Albert Einstein) From Peter.Gates at nottingham.ac.uk Tue Jun 15 11:27:04 2021 From: Peter.Gates at nottingham.ac.uk (Peter Gates) Date: Tue, 15 Jun 2021 10:27:04 +0000 Subject: [Maths-Education] FW: a valuable resource In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: From: Martin Greenhow (Staff) Sent: 15 June 2021 09:16 To: maths-education at lists.nottingham.ac.uk Subject: a valuable resource Morning all, Please excuse the intrusion, but I wanted to let you know about recent developments of maths e.g. that can be easily used to enhance your learning material (See below). Please get back to me with any questions or comments/suggestions. Best wishes, Martin Dr Martin Greenhow Tower A Room 217 Maths Dept, Brunel University Maths e.g. - a learning and assessment resource for students and teachers at the school/university interface Since 2000 we have been developing the maths e.g. e-assessment system at: http://www.mathcentre.ac.uk:8081/mathseg/index.jsp for casual use (no sign up required) and a teachers' interface at: http://www.mathcentre.ac.uk:8081/mathsegteacher/teacher.jsp where (after you sign up) tests may be composed by teachers from the 5000 or so question spaces, in a manner similar to shopping on Amazon (but entirely free). This generates a unique test URL to give to your students and which allows you to monitor your students' progress. Instructions are given on the entry page. The system uses question spaces that encode the algebraic and pedagogic structure of each question and this is then realised at runtime by choosing randomised parameters (numbers, words, scenarios). Thus each question space generates thousands or millions of questions seen by students, thereby allowing virtually unlimited practice. If a student goes wrong, very full and intelligent feedback (based on common errors i.e. so-called mal-rules) is given with the question's choice of parameters carried through into all features of the feedback (wording, equations using MathML and diagrams using SVG). This represents a rich learning environment and, being a standard web page, works on all browsers, PC, Mac or smart phone. The interface is based around a tree structure comprising 29 main topics and numerous subtopics spanning GCSE, A level and year 1 undergraduate mathematics and some mathematically-oriented topics from Economics, Biosciences, Chemistry and Nursing. The difficulty for students can be knowing where they should look and expend effort so teachers will need to direct them. To facilitate this, it is possible to add links to individual questions or whole topics into any of your learning resources that supports web links (word, power point, pdfs, other web pages etc). For an individual question, just run any question and add the link to the url at the top of the screen to your resource. For a topic or subtopic, note the pid number and edit the following link: http://www.mathcentre.ac.uk:8081/mathseg/topic.jsp?pid=114 (the 114 at the end links to Differentiation\Chain rule\Natural logarithms). It's as easy as that. It will not have escaped you that this is a good source of questions, generally 'reverse engineered' so that the answers come out nicely, that can be used in traditional assessments and exams. Just take what you want. Please give maths e.g. a try and make good use of this extensive and popular resource that has been well road tested at Brunel University and elsewhere.
