83. Making Mathematics: Mathematics Research Teacher Handbook This book provides activities and lots of advice about working on problems. A thoroughresource for your students who are curious about fractals and chaos. http://www2.edc.org/makingmath/handbook/Teacher/Resources/Resources.asp

Home Support for Teachers RESOURCES Teachers and students engaged in research need ready access to mathematics resources. An investigation may take us into areas of mathematics that are not entirely familiar. When it does, we need to read up on the topic and learn enough to determine if the ideas might be of use in our work. For example, a student in a mathematics research seminar investigated peg solitaire games. He found several journal articles about these games that used methods based on group theory. In order to understand and apply the ideas from the published literature, he needed to find out how groups were defined and what their basic properties were. He was then able to adapt the methods of earlier researchers to his particular problems. As the above example suggests, it is neither possible nor advisable for students to have to rediscover, and make sense of, all mathematics on their own. They do need to recognize when learning new content might be helpful and how to obtain and use the resources that are available (see Getting Information ). As students apply the results that they encounter in their readings or that their peers produce, they come to recognize the cumulative and communal nature of mathematics. Interesting mathematics is almost always the product of building on the work of others.

UNDERSTANDING COMPLEX SYSTEMS Symposium Behavior of Open Multivariant Systems May 15, 2001 Department of Physics University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign The symposium, which will bring together researchers from many academic disciplines and from industry, should stimulate cross-disciplinary research activities. A small group of distinguished invited speakers will review the field of complex systems research. The organizers will provide information about funding opportunities for complex systems research and promote linkages for interdisciplinary proposals. Themes: - Common features of emergent structures in open multivariant systems, such as earth quakes, turbulence, lightning, and information flow on the internet. - Development of novel mathematical tools for modeling, prediction, and control, such as non-linear dynamics and chaos, renormalization, fractals, neural nets, cellular automata, genetic algorithms, and artifical life. - Design of simple and robust physical systems that can self-assemble, self-repair, and understand their environment. Invited Talks: Eberhard Bodenschatz, Cornell

This month's puzzle that will Infuse You With Amazement Monica Neagoy Mathematics Consulting Services Rare is the student who is not fascinated by the beauty of fractals, or the teacher who is not captivated by the surprises of chaos. Multiple media will be used to illustrate the interplay between fractals and chaos, and their connection with mathematics and our world. Monica Neagoy was educated in France, Asia and the U.S. with her Ph.D. in mathematics from the University of Maryland. Her exposure to many cultures, her mastery of several languages, and her professional involvement in both the arts and sciences give her a unique perspective on the learning and teaching of mathematics. She is a national mathematics consultant (ie., The Annenburg/CPB Channel, The American Association for the Advancement of Science, PBS) and the head judge for MATHCOUNTS organization. Since 1985, she has worked with in-service teachers independently and through Georgetown University. She is also a professional actor and is the artistic co-director of the professional LE NEON Theater in Washington, D.C. This will be an exciting evening with Monica Neagoy on March 9, 2001.

Buys your books from Amazon. I Love Mathematics! I think, most people agree that it is more difficult to be a teacher nowadays. The children do not respect the teachers as we did. Besides, there are more temptations which distract the concentration of the children. After all, people think that study is not so important because even the university graduates cannot get a satisfactory job. They believe, education cannot secure our living anymore. Facing so many difficulties in this field, teachers need support to strenghten/keep their faith in the career. I remembered, when I left the old schhol, one colleagues told me "we are still teaching because we have hope. Once the hope is lost, you will not want to teach anymore." I have found some websites about teaching. Please have a look. You may find somthing useful. Secondary School Mathematics Primary School Mathematics Interesting Topics Mathematics Games ...

T IME T RAVELERS A three-week summer program sponsored by The University of Scranton and the Northeastern Educational Intermediate Unit #19, Time Travelers is a fast-paced, intellectually stimulating program for students in sixth, seventh, and eighth grades. This thematically designed enrichment program provides many creative, artistic, and intellectual performance opportunities. Students participate in a daily schedule of accelerated courses in math, science, and literature. Mini courses in history and visual and performing arts are also part of the daily schedule. Through the challenging lessons and hands-on activities, students are encouraged to observe, question, discover, and explore fascinating information. Doctoral-level University of Scranton faculty members teach all classes. A full schedule of social and recreational activities complements the scholarly parts of the program. Students have access to impressive facilities and services during instruction and leisure time at The University of Scranton. Supervision is provided during all program hours. Commuter and residential options are available during the program dates of 10-28 July 2000. Students who are motivated to discover and broaden their talents through challenging academic course work are encouraged to apply. T HE A MERICAN C ENTURY THE 2000 PROGRAM THEME IS "THE 20TH CENTURY: THE AMERICAN CENTURY." Learn about the revolution in thought, culture, and technology. Discover the sweeping changes in math, science, literature and music. Travel through a century of extremes: poverty and wealth, brutality and compassion, war and peace. Discuss the major developments of our times: relativity, molecular biology, computer-based mathematics, and the social conflicts of race and gender.
