For more information, please contact [email protected]. Using Cartoons to Make Connections and Enrich Mathematics Abstract The article discusses the integration of cartoons into a finite mathematics college course. However, cartoon integration is appropriate for any educational level STEM course. Students and the author used an online comic strip creator, MakeBeliefsComix.com, to create cartoons that connected concepts to the real world and history. Following Cho, Osborne, and Sanders (2015), students wrote a paragraph about their cartoon and its mathematics. In addition to connecting mathematics to art and writing and unearthing students’ creative side, cartoons helped show the humanistic side of mathematics and promote communication and excitement about mathematics. The author developed a rubric to evaluate students’ cartoons. There was evidence that students who did cartoons were better able to explain a concept and give examples of its real-world connection than those who did not.

I hope that after reading the information presented here, you will become excited as well and want to contribute to the process. An opportunity to engage in an endeavor which has the potential of impacting millions of human beings is rare. I believe the message of the narrative of Unleashed, if properly disseminated, will transform how many African governments do business, and that transformation will unleash the potential of hundreds of millions of people in the countries of Africa. Unleashed is a treatise on the challenge of economic development in African countries which proffers specific initiatives for reversing the widely held negative prognosis for the countries of these nations. If the genie of ideas releases a formula that will begin transformational change in the economic prospects of the countries of Africa, it is safe to say that the accretive value will be felt not only by African nations but will in fact, reverberate throughout the world.

The path to the next normal Leading with resolve through the coronavirus pandemic May 2020 Introduction On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization formally declared COVID-19 a pandemic, underscoring the precipitous global uncertainty that had plunged lives and livelihoods into a still-unfolding crisis. Just two months later, daily reports of outbreaks—and of waxing and waning infection and mortality rates— continue to heighten anxiety, stir grief, and cast into question the contours of our collective social and economic future. Never in modern history have countries had to ask citizens around the world to stay home, curb travel, and maintain physical distance to preserve the health of families, colleagues, neighbors, and friends. And never have we seen job loss spike so fast, nor the threat of economic distress loom so large. In this unprecedented reality, we are also witnessing the beginnings of a dramatic restructuring of the social and economic order—the emergence of a new era that we view as the “next normal.” Dialogue and debate have only just begun on the shape this next normal will take.

  • Expression Unleashed V050221.Pages
    Expression unleashed The evolutionary & cognitive foundations of human communication VERSION September 2021 Christophe Heintz & Thom Scott-Phillips Department of Cognitive Science, Central European University, Budapest, Hungary page 1 of 51 Abstract Human expression is open-ended, versatile and diverse, ranging from ordinary language use to painting, from exaggerated displays of affection to micro-movements that aid coordina- tion. Here we present and defend the claim that this expressive diversity is united by an in- terrelated suite of cognitive capacities, the evolved functions of which are the expression and recognition of informative intentions. We describe how evolutionary dynamics leash com- munication to narrow domains of statistical mutual benefit, and how they are unleashed in humans. The relevant cognitive capacities are adaptations to living in a partner choice social ecology; and they are, correspondingly, part of the ordinarily developing human cognitive phenotype, emerging early and reliably in ontogeny. In other words, we identify distinctive features of humans’ social ecology to explain how and why humans evolved the capacities that, in turn, lead to massive diversity and open-endedness in means and modes of expres- sion. We make cross-species comparisons, describe how the relevant capacities can evolve in a gradual manner, and survey how unleashed expression facilitates not only language use but novel behaviour in many other domains too, focusing on the examples of joint action, teach- ing, punishment and art, all of which are ubiquitous in human societies but relatively rare in other species. We aim to help reorient cognitive pragmatics, as a phenomenon that is not a supplement to linguistic communication and on the periphery of language science, but rather the foundation of the many of the most distinctive features of human behaviour, soci- ety and culture.

C Amen P Seeking reconciliation with God and neighbor, let us remember the gift of baptism and confess our sin together. God of mercy, C we confess that we have sinned against you, against one another; we forgot to love as we have been loved. We are worried and distracted by many things, and we fail to love you above all else. Many times, we store up treasures for ourselves and turn away from our neighbors in need. Forgive us, for all that we’ve messed up, that we may live in the freedom of your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. P When we were laid low by sin and guilt, God made us alive together with Christ, forgiving us all our trespasses by taking our sins to the cross. So rejoice in this good news: you are brought back to the Father who created you, forgiven by the Savior who died for you, and poured out over again by the Holy Spirit who walks with you in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit and all God’s people said: C Amen Opening Hymn: ELW 323 Children’s Time Psalm 23 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not be in want.
