43. Hotel School's Computer Donation Helps IHS Math Students
    Hotel School's donation of 22 computers assists math students at IHS.By Casey Morse '00. With the Cornell School of Hotel Administration's  
    http://www.news.cornell.edu/Chronicle/98/12.3.98/HS_donation.html
    
    Extractions: By Casey Morse '00 With the Cornell School of Hotel Administration's recent donation of 22 Macintosh 6100 computers to Ithaca High School's math department, students at the high school will be getting an enhanced educational experience. The idea for the donation was hatched when Marge Ferguson, the Hotel School's assistant dean for business administration, attended her daughter's open house earlier this fall at Ithaca High School and came across a flyer requesting donations of computers for the high school. "Because the Hotel School had gradually been shifting away from Macs and toward PCs, [the Hotel School] offered to donate 22 of its surplus Macs to the high school," said Shari Avery, director of information technologies for the Hotel School. The 22 Mac computers have been set up as work stations in four math classrooms at the high school. Eight will be used by teacher Steve Weissberg with his Geometry II honors classes, five by Kevin McMahon with his Course 2 Regents students, four by Liz Morse with her local level Math B geometry classes, and five by Lianne Thompson with her local level Math A algebra classes. "Computers in the classroom makes the material more dynamic for the students," said Weissberg who, with computer programming teacher Tom Mariano, got the Macs up and running. "The math becomes a family of shapes and gives the students a better understanding of the material."

44. TIPS FOR MATH STUDENTS IN PROJECT BASED INSTRUCTION
    http://www.ma.utexas.edu/users/mks/teachers/PBI.html
    
    Extractions: TIPS FOR MATH STUDENTS IN PROJECT BASED INSTRUCTION Here are some suggestions especially for the math students in Project Based Instruction. I. Be sure to think carefully about where in the curriculum your project fits. The ideal is to create a project that you can actually carry out when you are teaching or maybe even when you are student teaching. Resources that can help you include: One good choice of course for your project is the new secondary course Mathematical Models with Applications. Since there is no designated textbook for this course, there is a lot of freedom to try new things. Click here to read the TEKS for this course. Click here to link to more information. II. Here are some sources for math activities III. In choosing activities, keep in mind the criteria given by your Project Based Instruction instructor. In addition, there are some criteria specific to mathematics that you should take into account. Here are some sources for these: The Professional Standards for School Mathematics include criteria for Worthwhile Mathematical Tasks You can find more information and examples at the INSTRUCT (Implementing the NCTM School Teaching Recommendations Using Collaborative Telecommunications) website. (Link to Standards, then Worthwhile Mathematical Tasks, then follow the various links to further elaboration and examples.)

47. The Infinity -- Spring 1999 -- Woo Math Students Perform Well On Annual Putnam E
    Woo math students Perform Well on Annual Putnam Exam Emily Gamber OnSaturday, December 5, 1998 while most COW students were scrambling  
    http://www.wooster.edu/math/Infinity/spring99/putnam.html
    
    Extractions: Emily Gamber On Saturday, December 5, 1998 while most COW students were scrambling around trying to get the right bar codes during course registration, a group of 8 dedicated math students slaved over a 6-hour exam. The time had come for the infamous Putnam Exam. Donuts and pencils (and for some a red dot) in hand, these students tried desperately to remember everything they had ever learned in their 13 to 16 years of schooling about mathematics. The exam features twelve questions to be answered in two sessions, a 3-hour morning session and a 3-hour afternoon session. Many of the questions did not require much more than a calculus background to solve, but the creativity and ingenuity needed proved to either make or break the solution. There is no real way to study for this test, as the questions are of contest nature and are unpredictable. However, students enrolled in Problem Seminar, Math 299, instructed by Dr. Hampton in an attempt to become more familiar with the types of questions often asked. Each problem is worth a total of 10 points; partial credit is often awarded. President Stan Hales explained the grading process to the class, as he has been a grader for the Putnam numerous times in previous years. If a student gets the problem exactly right, the score is a 10. A good start warrants a 1 or a 2, while having a good handle on the solution with only one or two minor mistakes deserves an 8 or a 9. Hales noted that "it is often tough to distinguish between a 2 and an 8." Middle scores (3 - 7) are not given, as a rule.

48. Searching For Gifted Middle School Math Students
    Back to the IN CASE YOU MISSED IT index. Beware the Search for Gifted Middle School math students. In a recent exchange on the Middle  
    http://www.middleweb.com/INCASEgiftmath.html
    
    Extractions: We are exploring an accelerated math program for middle school students and would be interested in knowing what other middle schools use to identify gifted math students. Are there other reliable prognostic tests besides the Iowa Algebra Aptitude Test? Do any schools offer geometry to middle school students? How does an accelerated math program fit in the middle school concept? I would appreciate any insights or information that you could offer. BEWARE THE SEARCH FOR MIDDLE SCHOOL KIDS WHO ARE "GIFTED" IN MATH! The idea is nice, but the devil is in the details. All too often the realities of aggressive, politically astute parents and overzealous educators override the placement criteria and substantial numbers of kids are accelerated inappropriately. We have found, after six years of such a program, that middle school math achievement has fallen overall (even though the NUMBER of students in accelerated classes has grown), and that the major problem with students in advanced math classes in high school is that they do not have the background necessary to really handle the content. Again the concept is fine... just be sure that your criteria are clear and, frankly, rigid. IMHO, kids who are on the boarderline, or just plain close, should NOT be accelerated in middle school. They will have the opportunity to accelerate later (either via regular school program or summer school) as the developmental end kicks in and confirms that it is a viable option. Better to err on this end than to look back 3-4 years later and realize that this kid has barely been cutting it. In short, I'm happier with a kid who gets A's and B's with performance-based grades (i.e., not homework and other responsibility-based grades) in a lower level class, than with a kid who gets C's in an accelerated class. Again, IMHO, if a student is appropriately accelerated, that student should be able to maintain at least a B average. If not, than the acceleration is probably not the right decision for the middle school youngster.

    Extractions: by Staff Reports Math students romp: On Nov. 1, 173 students from 32 Southeastern colleges and universities participated in the 19th annual Virginia Tech Regional Mathematics Contest. Eight of the top 16 contestants were University students, including the second, third and fourth place finishes by Trinity freshmen Carl Miller and John Clyde; Trinity juniors Andrew Dittmer, Christopher Beasley and John Hyde; Engineering junior Nathan Bronson; Trinity sophomore Sarah Dean; and Trinity senior Noam Shazeer. Clyde, Dittmer and Bronson will each receive cash rewards for their performances. This two-and-a-half-hour math contest is considered to be a warm-up for the six-hour-long William Lowello Putnam Mathematical Competition, taken by more than 2,000 undergraduates at 400 American and Canadian universities. Last year, first place was awarded to a three-person team from the University, which was the University's second national championship in four years. The 1997 Putman Competition was held on Dec. 6. The results will not be released until March.
