Lesli Linka Glatter directed the episode written by Doris Egan. When a 5-year-old girl is kidnapped from her birthday party, Don and Terry are called to lead the investigation, but must rely on Charlie when they learn the girl's father, Ethan (Neil Patrick Harris), is a mathematician who is close to solving Riemann's Hypothesis, one of the word’s most difficult math problems. Charlie struggles to help solve the impossible equation when the kidnappers ransom the life of Ethan’s daughter for the solution to Riemann’s Hypothesis, which if solved, could break the code for internet security; thus unlocking one of the world's biggest financial secrets. Meanwhile, Charlie becomes upset when his father, Alan, decides to put the family home up for sale.

  • Popularising Mathematics
    Popularising Mathematics Philipp Legner August 2013 Abstract Mathematics has countless applications in science, engineering and technology, yet school mathematics is one of the most unpopular subjects, perceived as difficult, boring and not useful in life. ‘Popularisation’ projects can help bridge this gap, by showing how exciting, applicable and beautiful mathematics is. Some popularisation projects focus on telling the wider public about mathematics, including its history, philosophy and applications; other projects encourage you to actively do mathematics and discover surprising relationships and beautiful results using mathematical reasoning and thinking. In this report I will develop a framework to classify and evaluate popularisation, and analyse a wide range of existing projects – ranging from competitions to websites, movies, exhibitions, books and workshops. I also reflect upon my personal experiences in designing popularisation activities. I would like to thank Professor Dave Pratt for his advise while writing this report. Table of Contents Introduction 1 Part 1: A Framework for Mathematics Popularisation The Value of Mathematics ........................................................................... 2 Defining Mathematics Popularisation ...................................................... 4 Designing Mathematics Popularisation ................................................... 8 Evaluating Popularisation Projects ............................................................ 11 Part 2: Case Studies of Popularisation Projects

  • Using a Popular Television Show to Excite Interest in Science and Mathematics Through Engineering: Numb3rs for Teachers
    AC 2008-1764: USING A POPULAR TELEVISION SHOW TO EXCITE INTEREST IN SCIENCE AND MATHEMATICS THROUGH ENGINEERING: NUMB3RS FOR TEACHERS Catherine Skokan, Colorado School of Mines Michael Ewing, Colorado School of Mines Barbara Moskal, Colorado School of Mines Heidi Barker, Regis University Page 13.1324.1 Page © American Society for Engineering Education, 2008 Using a Popular Television Show to Excite Interest in Science and Mathematics through Engineering: NUMB3RS for Teachers Abstract As part of a continuing effort to increase the mathematical and scientific literacy of middle school teachers and their students, the Colorado School of Mines has offered a series of summer workshops. The theme of these workshops is using engineering concepts to excite teachers’ and students’ interests in the applications of mathematics and physical science. Each workshop is followed by an academic year intervention during which a graduate student visits the middle school classroom and assists the participating teachers in implementing mathematical and scientific experiments. In the summer of 2007, the workshop was based on the television show NUMB3RS, which is well known for its use of mathematics and science to solve criminal cases. As part of the summer workshop, the teachers viewed an episode of NUMB3RS. Then, they learned about the mathematical and scientific concepts discussed in the show and completed hands-on activities that built on these concepts. Multiple choice pre and post tests were administered at the beginning and end of the workshop to measure change in the teachers’ mathematical and scientific knowledge. This paper describes the design of the NUMB3RS workshop and outcomes of our assessment efforts.

  • Relevance Theory and Constructed Female Nerdiness in CBS's the Big
    96 Relevance Theory and Constructed Female Nerdiness in CBS’s The Big Bang Theory Carrie P. Mastley Mississippi State University 1. Introduction In the past decade, America’s nerd culture has exploded in the media with the emergence of several television shows depicting nerd characters. Programs such as BBC’s Dr. Who and CBS’s Numb3rs are not only shows with “nerdy” content, but the dialogue is centered around nerd lead characters (The Doctor and Charlie Eppes respectively). CBS’s The Big Bang Theory (TBBT), however, has the largest concentration of nerd characters on its show with six of the seven lead characters acting as nerds. While all of these nerd characters are academic and professional overachievers (all have either master’s degrees or Ph.D.s), two serve as the show’s hyper-nerds: Sheldon Cooper and Amy Farrah Fowler. The characterization of these hyper-nerds often takes common stereotypes of “typical” nerds and hyperbolizes them in order to create comedy. For instance, nerds are often considered brainy and intellectually governed; these hyper-nerds are characterized on an entirely different level where their nerdiness ultimately comes across as cold, distant, and socially inept. This social distancing of these two characters is most clearly indicated in their scripted language; through their language, the show’s writers further hyperbolize Sheldon and Amy’s nerdiness by portraying them as unable to communicate effectively in social settings. While some studies exist on Sheldon’s characterization of the hyper-nerd, none currently exist on Amy. Thus, the remainder of this study will focus on the creation of comedy through the instantiation of hyperbolic nerd characteristics in Amy’s scripted language.
