  • Field Guide 3 to 4
    How to use the Building a Strong Foundation for School Success Series; Field Guide This field guide was created to offer an easy‐to‐read, practical supplement to the KY Early Childhood Standards (KYECS) for anyone who works with young children birth to four years old. This guide is intended to support early childhood professionals who work in the following settings: home settings, early intervention settings, and center‐based care. The field guide has chapters for each of the Kentucky Early Childhood Standards. Below is a description of the information you will find in each chapter. Each chapter will begin with a brief overview of the standard. In this paragraph, you will find information about what this standard is and the theory and research to support its use. Each chapter contains a section called Crossing Bridges. It is important to understand that the developmental domains of young children often cross and impact others. While a provider is concentrating on a young child learning communication skills, there are other domains or standards being experienced as well. This section tells the reader how this standard supports other standards and domains. For example, you will see that social emotional development of an infant supports or overlaps the infant’s communication development. Each chapter contains a section called Post Cards. This section offers supportive quotes about the standard. In this section, readers will also find narratives, written by early care providers for early care providers. These narratives provide a window into how the standard is supported in a variety of settings. Each chapter contains a section called Sights to See.

    S The SummaTion S Department of Mathematics & Computer Science Newsletter · Santa Clara University · 2018 Remarks from the Department Chair Hi. This is Ed Schaefer, I succeeded Fr. Dennis Smo- larksi, S.J. and Glenn Appleby as Chair. We hope you are all doing well and that we have been one of the pieces that helped prepare you for your life. Both nationwide and at SCU, the percentage of students majoring in STEM fields (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) is increasing. At SCU, we are seeing huge growth in both Computer Science and Computer Engineering. In our De- partment, we currently have about 250 Computer Science majors and 100 Mathematics majors. The Department’s enrollment in Winter 2018 classes is about 2100 students. Each of the last three years we have hired a new tenure-track faculty member and we have plans to hire six more continuing faculty over the next two years. The Department has received two gifts to improve our first year mathematics curriculum and retention of students traditionally under-represented in STEM. One gift is from the Koret Foundation and the other is from anonymous donors – they total $700,000. This has enabled us to support several exciting new programs. We are piloting lab sections for precalculus, STEM Calculus 1 and Business Calculus 1 (Math 9, 11, and 30). Each lab meets once a week for an hour. Active learning pedagogies are used in the labs, including a lot of group work focused on longer, conceptual problems. Students in SCU’s successful LEAD program, for first generation undergraduates, all take the labs, which are optional for other students.

  • A Message from the Chair
    SPRING 2012 NEWSLETTER A Message from the Chair What a special and wonderful year it has been at Baylor University! Athletically, our teams have shined and there have been great individual accomplishments by many star athletes, including Robert Griffin III and Brittney Griner. Our teams, our coaches, our athletes have made all of us proud to wear the Green and Gold of Baylor Nation. Just before the start of the Baylor baseball season, my wife and I attended the annual Baylor baseball banquet. When I asked head coach Steve Smith how the team was looking, he replied “Right now, we‟re 0-0 and my team has a 3.15 GPA”. It‟s wonderful to hear that, at Baylor University, our coaches emphasize academics and athletics – and they mean it! Check out our full April lineup inside for special The big rumor on campus for the past several events on campus all months has been talk of a new football stadium month long! on campus near to where the Brazos and I-35 meet. And now the big news has broken that we are one huge step closer to this reality, thanks to the unprecedented generosity of Elizabeth and Drayton McLane Jr.! It‟s controversial for sure, since we have many pressing needs on campus, but I love and fully embrace the idea of a new stadium. The city of Waco has made numerous transformative changes in the past five years and a new stadium will help further to invite new businesses and restaurants to the Lance Littlejohn downtown area.

GGMost mathematicians of their time knew their names, Never Were too. However, since Littlewood had been seen in public places far less often than Hardy, some people joked about BARBARA PIERONKIEWICZ whether he really existed or not. Some even speculated openly that maybe Littlewood was only ‘‘a pseudonym that Hardy put on his weaker papers’’ (Krantz 2001, p. 47). Let’s make it clear then: Littlewood was not just ‘‘a figment of This column is a forum for discussion of mathematical Hardy’s imagination’’ (Fitzgerald and James 2007, p. 136). He was real, unlike most of the famous scientists explored communities throughout the world, and through all in this article. time.

  • Ronald Graham: Laying the Foundations of Online Optimization
    Documenta Math. 239 Ronald Graham: Laying the Foundations of Online Optimization Susanne Albers Abstract. This chapter highlights fundamental contributions made by Ron Graham in the area of online optimization. In an online problem relevant input data is not completely known in advance but instead arrives incrementally over time. In two seminal papers on scheduling published in the 1960s, Ron Graham introduced the con- cept of worst-case approximation that allows one to evaluate solutions computed online. The concept became especially popular when the term competitive analysis was coined about 20 years later. The frame- work of approximation guarantees and competitive performance has been used in thousands of research papers in order to analyze (online) optimization problems in numerous applications. 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: 68M20, 68Q25, 68R99, 90B35 Keywords and Phrases: Scheduling, makespan minimization, algo- rithm, competitive analysis An architect of discrete mathematics Born in 1935, Ron Graham entered university at age 15. Already at that time he was interested in a career in research. He first enrolled at the University of Chicago but later transferred to the University of California at Berkeley, where he majored in electrical engineering. During a four-year Air Force service in Alaska he completed a B.S. degree in physics at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks, in 1958. He moved back to the University of California at Berkeley where he was awarded a M.S. and a Ph.D. degree in mathematics in 1961 and 1962, respectively. Immediately after graduation Ron Graham joined Bell Labs. Some friends were afraid that this could be the end of his research but, on the contrary, he built the labs into a world-class center of research in discrete mathematics and theoretical computer science.
