Cine y Matemáticas | Matbus. Blog de la Biblioteca de Matemáticas de Sevilla Estrenos Matemáticos 04/12/2012. Se acaba de estrenar en España la película “Trouble with the curve” (Golpe de efecto) protagonizada por el veterano Clint Eastwood y dirigida por su amigo Robert Lorenz. Encontramos algunas semejanzas estre esta película y “Moneyball” – recientemente adquirida por la Biblioteca de Matemáticas -, tras la lectura del artículo de José María Sorando Muzas sobre “Cine y Estadística” (cuya referencia completa podéis leer más abajo). En “Golpe de efecto” Clint Eastwood interpreta el papel de un ojeador de béisbol al que la edad empieza a pasar factura. Os animamos a que disfrutéis de “Golpe de efecto” y ya sabéis que podéis dejar vuestros comentarios sobre el film en MatBUS. —————————————————————– En la película “El Turista“, Johnny Deep es un tranquilo profesor de matemáticas. Filmografía:En esta sección incluiremos Películas, documentales y libros sobre las Matemáticas y el Cine desponibles en la BUS. Año 2012 Año 2011 Año 2008 Año 2006 Año 2004 Años 2000 – 2003

didactmaticprimaria Math Programs: How They Rate on Common-Core Alignment Based on market share and states’ recommendations, EdReports.org selected 20 math instructional series to review for common-core alignment. (For reporting purposes, K-5 and 6-8 texts from the same publisher were considered separate series.) Small teams of educators scored the digital and print texts on focus, coherence, rigor, and usability. In addition to individual grade-level ratings, EdReports.org gave summative ratings for each grade band (K-2, 3-5, and 6-8). Eureka Math was the only program that met the expectations for alignment to the Common Core State Standards at every grade level reviewed.

Beyond Working Hard: What Growth Mindset Teaches Us About Our Brains | GROWTH MINDSET | MindShift | KQED News Growth mindset has become a pervasive theme in education discussions in part because of convincing research by Stanford professor Carol Dweck and others that relatively low-impact interventions on how a student thinks about himself as a learner can have big impacts on learning. The growth mindset research is part of a growing understanding and acknowledgement that many non-cognitive factors are important to academic learning. While it’s a positive sign that educators see value in the growth mindset research and believe they can implement it in their classrooms, the deceptively simple idea has led to some confusion and misperceptions about what a growth mindset really is and how teachers can support it in the classroom. It’s easy to lump growth mindset in with other education catchphrases, like “resiliency” or “having high expectations,” but growth mindset actually has a much more concrete definition. Approaching the world with a growth mindset can be very liberating. Katrina Schwartz

I Don’t Teach First Grade; I Teach Mathematics By Claire Riddell, posted July 5, 2016 — While teaching first grade, I sought out a partnership with a fifth-grade teacher to co-teach some math lessons in both of our classes. This partnership was not required by an administrator or a district initiative; instead it came from our mutual desire to understand mathematics and pedagogy before and after our respective grade levels. After experiencing just a few lessons in fifth grade, I realized that this partnership was opportunity to see into the future. I was able to experience what my students would be doing in mathematics in just four short years. The next time I looked at the first-grade standards, it was if I had put on 3D glasses. Those of you who teach reading know how fortunate we are to have the Anchor Standards. In mathematics, our job is a bit more muddled. So, you may be thinking, That’s nice, but this is a daunting task. I suggest first starting with three fundamental questions: Now here comes some good news!
