•       Can of examples be adjusted to your setting?

•       How do you think mathematics/numeracy teachers can develop democratic approaches in their teaching planning?

•       Other ideas for letting ……….

]]> 2022-01-10 19:42:39 UTC https://padlet.com/arkenback/alm2022/wish/1984650168 for adults it's important to have a context with numbers/math, and the examples Lena used will give you that. Elections and Covid is/has been current news in lots of countries over the past year. https://padlet.com/arkenback/alm2022/wish/1984651172 2022-01-10 19:43:12 UTC https://padlet.com/arkenback/alm2022/wish/1984651172 catherinebyrne68 https://padlet.com/arkenback/alm2022/wish/1984651419 Some students are not familiar with history - where do democracy start, look back at historical origins. Not much time to explore topics like.

One person teaches in the military context so values of democracy are highly relevant
Need to teach / help students understand quantitive stats to understand fake news
Maths should be global and local, not belonging to one country but many. Include such things as financial context.
People want to know how people can use and understand data .
Maths, stats and democracy goes beyond when voting in national governments
Local democratic votes are important for democracy in everyday life. Some mayors do not even talk to people, so have no information.
In Korea and other countries fake news is very important issue. 
Not just not reported but falsely reported, using numbers to support fake news.
Reported reality is not always actual reality.

Debate requires evidence.
Evidence is often in the form of data.
Ergo data analysis is key to maintaining healthy democracies.]]> 2022-01-10 19:50:20 UTC https://padlet.com/arkenback/alm2022/wish/1984664787 I live and work in Washington, DC. We have no representation in the US Congress. Any work on voting very quickly becomes political. It can sometimes be difficult to keep discussions on the math and the results of the math. https://padlet.com/arkenback/alm2022/wish/1984688605 2022-01-10 20:03:23 UTC https://padlet.com/arkenback/alm2022/wish/1984688605 Book Recommendation catherinebyrne68 https://padlet.com/arkenback/alm2022/wish/1984694653 "Rethinking mathematics: teaching social justice by the numbers" edited by Eric Gutstein and Bob Peterson, publilsihed by Rethinking Schools, 2005, is not a new resource, but an excellent one

]]> 2022-01-10 20:08:30 UTC https://padlet.com/arkenback/alm2022/wish/1984697092 Interesting topic catherinebyrne68 https://padlet.com/arkenback/alm2022/wish/1984699319 The Polsby-Popper measure compares the area of a shape to the perimeter. Our setting will be to work with squares and so the formula becomes 𝑃𝑃𝑀=(16 𝑎𝑟𝑒𝑎 (𝑆))/𝑃^2 where 𝑃 is the perimeter of the shape 𝑆. If the 𝑃𝑃𝑀 is close to 1, the boundaries are close to the constant curve (i.e. smooth like a circle), and as the measurement decreases, the more contorted the boundaries become.
The Reock Measure of a shape compares the area of the shape to the smallest circle that the shape can fit in and so determines how much a shape is spread out from its center. When working with our square lattice the Reock Measure is 𝑅𝑀=(𝑎𝑟𝑒𝑎(𝑆))/𝑑^2 where 𝑆 is our shape and 𝑑 is the maximum height and width of 𝑆. If the 𝑅𝑀 close to 1, there is little dispersion, while the smaller the Reock measure, the more dispersion the shape exhibits.
