@MemeMedianMode@sreesociety@APPAM_DC My students in the past have been really struck by learning about the ways conference attendance/travel is funded! Those were masters students so you might have a different knowledge base if you've got doc students.
Have a radical dream for your work space? There's still time to apply to the Rehumanizing Mathematics Workshop at Park City Math Institute for this summer! You'll meet amazing people + I'll support you on your project. International applications welcomed. https://t.co/YKtDRQKAIW

@howie_hua I used this and a few other of your "how manys" on the first day of my elementary math course this past week - they're so great! Fab way into talking about counting.
This week’s recommendation is a paper from @Lesliedietiker, @theriling, Rashmi Singh, Hector Nieves, & Erin Barno exploring what sparks high school students’ curiosity in some mathematics lessons. @BUWheelock

@DougRoom8@Lesliedietiker thanks so much! that's a very intriguing use - we've focused so much on individual lessons, so I wonder what could be learned about that kind of a structure through the framework. And clotheslines are new to me, super interesting!
It's the end of my first semester "ungrading" my courses - and what a delight these final course conversations have been. So interesting to hear what ideas stood out for my students, and how they think about their own learning.
Thrilled to be joining Peabody!! Students, staff, and faculty have been wonderful to get to know so far, so many great conversations about learning already and it's only week 2 of the semester!
Weeks of paid maternity leave offered to workers:
🇬🇧: 39
🇮🇪: 26
🇦🇺: 18
🇩🇰: 18
🇫🇮: 17.5
🇨🇦: 17
🇫🇷: 16
🇨🇭: 14
🇮🇸: 13
🇺🇸: ZERO
We must end the international embarrassment of being the only major country on the planet not to guarantee a single day of paid maternity leave.
