Computer-Based Math

Another excellent panel at #TheMathsFix Conference thanks to all of our speakers: #SoniaSharp, #BrianSilverman, #JoshuaFost, @joboaler and @davidjcvaccaro! So much great, practical advice to take away and start achieving #ComputationalLiteracy!

"We have these horrible ratings for kids that look like energy efficiency ratings for washing machines and parents want their children to be getting bright green strip—to get parents on board we need a better rating system" -@davidjcvaccaro #TheMathsFix conference

Up next we have our second panel "The Implementation: Defining Actionable Change" with another great lineup featuring #SoniaSharp, @joboaler, #JoshuaFost, #BrianSilverman and @davidjcvaccaro!

Next up at #TheMathsFix Conference we have Alec Titterton with the Anatomy of a Computer-Based Maths Solution

What if, rather than asking students simplistic questions like "How much fence would you need for this garden" we asked messy, real-world problems like "From imaging blood, how accurately can we detect leukemia?" #TheMathsFix Conference

Thanks Alec! Now over to Daniel Robinson for The Foundations of #ComputationalLiteracy

Up now is CBM Content Development Manager #AlecTitterton taking us through the core outcomes with think a new Core Computational Subject should strive the achieve. Find out more about our required outcomes: computerbasedmath.org/materi…

What a great discussion, thank you to all our panellists and to you for all your questions! Up next we have Alec Titterton taking us through our proposal for #TheMathsFix!

We don't teach PowerPoint in MBA programs-we assume they'll learn how to do that themselves-so why do we spend so much time teaching coding in data science programs? -@Scriffignano1 #TheMathsFix Conference

I want students to play with numbers, trying things just to see what will happen and getting used to getting things wrong! -#MartinaWicklein #TheMathsFix Conference
