Monday, January 25, 2010. Posted by Steve Phelps. Posted by Steve Phelps. Sunday, January 24, 2010. Formative Assessing to the Extreme. For the past couple of weeks, I have been taking How Math Must Assess. To an extreme, literally checking every problem every student does in class, providing constructive feedback to each student who needs it, and placing a check next to their names if they demonstrate to me that they can "do" whatever it was they were doing on that day. And it really is easy. Friday, Ja...

Real, and irrational...: November 2009
http://anotherteacherblog.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Real, and irrational. Never stop looking for ways to be a better teacher. Monday, November 30, 2009. I'm posting this here so I don't need to try to go back and find it again! The Comprehensive Math Assessment Resource. Posted by Carol L. Sunday, November 29, 2009. I sub at the high school my child attends. Last year, I taught the entire year as a long-term sub. She was in my classes, which was actually really great! But now the teacher I was filling in for is back. When your teen-aged child, who thinks ...

Real, and irrational...: April 2010
http://anotherteacherblog.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Real, and irrational. Never stop looking for ways to be a better teacher. Sunday, April 25, 2010. How Exciting is This? Yes, I know its been since January. My computer crashed and I've been busy. This is way cool though. Told me she "Wants the rest of the schools in the district to know how awesome I am." (I blush to write that, but they were her words). I have no idea where to even start with this, but I am SO excited. Hooray! Notice how I always capitalize it? Posted by Carol L. As a general rule, I do...

Real, and irrational...: Simplify the Exit Ticket?
http://anotherteacherblog.blogspot.com/2014/07/simplify-exit-ticket.html
Real, and irrational. Never stop looking for ways to be a better teacher. Tuesday, July 29, 2014. Simplify the Exit Ticket? Exit Tickets are an idea i have always *wanted* to do. I talk about them, I use them as examples of formative assessment for the newer teachers I mentor, in theory I think they're great! Which will do a lot of the data collection and summary for me. So now my thinking cap is on and running. If I'm going to do this, I need to start planning so I'm ahead of the curve. Might be...Oh, a...

Real, and irrational...: I Need An Action Plan!
http://anotherteacherblog.blogspot.com/2014/07/i-need-action-plan.html
Real, and irrational. Never stop looking for ways to be a better teacher. Wednesday, July 30, 2014. I Need An Action Plan! I've bumped into this image twice today, here. Both by teachers recapping their experiences at TMC14. I don't know, but it made something click in my head. But I can't make a plan for the 100 things I want to change. Not gonna happen. Narrow it down "they" say. So I sat and thought for a while this morning, as the temperature in my back yard crept towards 100 degrees....2 Exit ticket...

y of x: ABBA = ABBA
http://yofx.blogspot.com/2009/07/abba-abba.html
The Unofficial Tunxis Math Department Blog. Tuesday, July 14, 2009. I was dragged to an ABBA. Tribute concert last Friday night. I'm regrettably familiar with ABBA's music, Mama Mia. Veteran (even the sing-a-long), but it was the first time I realized the band's name is a palindrome. It is also the first time the name reminded me of a rhyme scheme. Two revelations, one night.) What is the real origin of the name? Reminder YofX will be moving to www.yofx.org. In 6 days on 7/20*. Geek of the Week.

y of x: Which Mathematical Function Are You?
http://yofx.blogspot.com/2009/07/which-mathematical-function-are-you.html
The Unofficial Tunxis Math Department Blog. Thursday, July 16, 2009. Which Mathematical Function Are You? Lee tipped me off on a great Facebook time-waster: the Which Mathematical Function Are You. Lee is apparently the Riemann zeta-function. I'm curious how many functions the quiz outputs. Let me know what you got in the comments. Reminder YofX will be moving to www.yofx.org. In 4 days on 7/20*. I usually skip the FB quizzes, but this one appealed to my nerdy side. Funny enough, I was Gaussian also!

Goodbye, Printed Word | FracTad's Fractopia
https://fractad.wordpress.com/2011/04/01/goodbye-printed-word
Musings on Math, Music, Miscellanea. Skip to primary content. Goodbye, Printed Word. April 1, 2011. My wonderful family gave me a Kindle for my birthday. I was curious to see what the reading experience is like on one, and I have to say that I am a bigger fan than I expected I would be. The first book I bought was James’ Gleick’s The Information: A History, A Theory, A Flood. I also downloaded The Orthodox Study Bible. Are books themselves becoming a thing of the past? This entry was posted in Miscellanea.
