Wednesday, February 24th 2010 we will meet in the LearnCentral public
Elluminate room at 6:30pm Pacific / 9:30pm Eastern time: <a href="https://sas.elluminate.com/d.jnlp?sid=lcevents&password=Webinar_Guest" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://sas.elluminate.com/d.jnlp?sid=lcevents&password=Webinar_Guest</a><br>
<br>
This event, in the Research, Grants and Publications Track, is devoted to the Math in Computer Science community. As a part
of the introduction, Maria Droujkova will interview Peter Henderson, a
co-founder of the community, about their history, goals and projects. We
will then take a look at an active K-12 group within the community, The
Teach Group, with Rex Page answering questions about it. We may touch
on some of the currently "hot" controversies within the community, such
as roles of procedural and functional programming in helping students
understand mathematics.<br>

Mathematical reasoning is central to computer science. It should
therefore be an integral part of the entire CS curriculum, with special
emphasis in the early courses. This would be a deviation from current
practice, requiring systemic change in CS education. We are a group of
computer scientists, mathematicians, and others interested in fostering
such change. <br>
The group "meets" (<a href="http://mail.geneseo.edu/mailman/listinfo/math-thinking-l/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">via e-mail</a>), to discuss topics
related to mathematical reasoning in CS and its teaching. An <a href="http://mail.geneseo.edu/pipermail/math-thinking-l/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">archive</a> of these discussions is available on-line.
Possible topics include, but are not limited to, which mathematical
concepts are relevant, when and how they can/should be introduced and
reinforced in the curriculum, how they relate to practice, pedagogical
approaches to teaching math foundations, supporting laboratories, etc.
We are undertaking concrete projects designed to raise awareness of
mathematical reasoning in CS and of ways of teaching it.<br>
