Place-based Math Education appears in MAA Focus
The most recent issue of the MAA Focus newsmagazine contains an article about place-based math pedagogy at the University of Hawai’i. The article is written by faculty member Stacy M.T. Potes from the School of Teacher Education, and Kyle J.M. Dahlin, a UH alumnus and an NSF MPS ascending postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Mathematics at Virginia Tech.
The article is related to a 10-week Place-based Math Education Seminar that Dahlin and Potes organized in Summer 2024, and which included 9 UH math graduate students. The article highlights an open-access textbook that derives mathematics problems from traditional wayfinding methods, and was written by Kamuela Yong, a faculty member in the math department of UH West Oahu. It also highlights the a research experience for undergraduates organized by Esther Widiasih, chair of the math department of UH West Oahu.
You can find the article through the MAA Focus website.
