2 The Rules of Engagement
Speak meaningfully — what you say should carry meaning; Exhibit intellectual integrity — base your conjectures on a logical foundation; don’t pretend to understand when you don’t; Strive to make sense — persist in making sense of problems and your colleagues’ thinking. Respect the learning process of your colleagues — allow them the opportunity to think, reflect and construct. When assisting your colleagues, pose questions to better understand their constructed meanings. We ask that you refrain from simply telling your colleagues how to do a particular task. Marilyn Carlson, Arizona State University

Interpret a multiplication equation as a comparison, e.g., interpret 35 = 5 × 7 as a statement that 35 is 5 times as many as 7 and 7 times as many as 5. Represent verbal statements of multiplicative comparisons as multiplication equations. Multiply or divide to solve word problems involving multiplicative comparison, e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem, distinguishing multiplicative comparison from additive comparison.

Students who engage these concepts with the unextended version of multiplication (a groups of b things) will have prior knowledge that does not support the required mathematical coherences.” Source: Learning Trajectories in Mathematics: A Foundation for Standards, Curriculum, Assessment, and Instruction.

30 3030 08/13/09 08/13/09 Measurement “Technically, a measurement is a number that indicates a comparison between the attribute of an object being measured and the same attribute of a given unit of measure.” Van de Walle (2001) But what does he mean by “comparison”? 30

31 Measurement Determine the attribute you want to measure
3131 08/13/09 08/13/09 Measurement How about this? Determine the attribute you want to measure Find something else with the same attribute. Use it as the measuring unit. Compare the two: multiplicatively. 31

33 Create your own… With a rubber band.
International standard unit of length. With a rubber band. Use it to measure something. Use it to measure the length of someone else’s band. Use their band to measure yours.

74 Or not…

75 When I say two figures are similar I mean…
Hint: We haven’t defined “proportional” so you cannot use it.

76 Using only your meaning of similarity (and no formulas)
explain how to find x. (Assume the figures are similar)

77 Working with similar figures
“Similar means same shape different size.” “All rectangles are the same shape. They are all rectangles!” “Therefore all rectangles are similar.”

80 What does it mean to say something is “out of proportion”?

81 “A single proportion is a relationship between two quantities such that if you increase the size of one by a factor a, then the other’s measure must increase by the same factor to maintain the relationship” Thompson, P. W., & Saldanha, L. (2003). Fractions and multiplicative reasoning. In J. Kilpatrick, G. Martin & D. Schifter (Eds.), Research companion to the Principles and Standards for School Mathematics (pp ).

106 A tangent: The first proof of the existence of irrational numbers is usually attributed to a Pythagorean (possibly Hippasus of Metapontum),who probably discovered them while identifying sides of the pentagram.The then-current Pythagorean method would have claimed that there must be some sufficiently small, indivisible unit that could fit evenly into one of these lengths as well as the other. However, Hippasus, in the 5th century BC, was able to deduce that there was in fact no common unit of measure, and that the assertion of such an existence was in fact a contradiction.  11/2/2012

109 Hippasus, however, was not lauded for his efforts: according to one legend, he made his discovery while out at sea, 11/2/2012

110 Hippasus, however, was not lauded for his efforts: according to one legend, he made his discovery while out at sea, and was subsequently thrown overboard by his fellow Pythagoreans “…for having produced an element in the universe which denied the…doctrine that all phenomena in the universe can be reduced to whole numbers and their ratios.”  11/2/2012

111 Too much math never killed anyone.
…except Hippasus

112 Archimedes died c. 212 BC …According to the popular account given by Plutarch, Archimedes was contemplating a mathematical diagram when the city was captured. A Roman soldier commanded him to come and meet General Marcellus but he declined, saying that he had to finish working on the problem. The soldier was enraged by this, and killed Archimedes with his sword. 11/2/2012

113 The last words attributed to Archimedes are
"Do not disturb my circles"  11/2/2012 Domenico-Fetti Archimedes

Ways of doing Ways of thinking Habits of thinking

116 Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
Reason abstractly and quantitatively. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. Model with mathematics. Use appropriately tools strategically. Attend to precision. Look for and make use of structure. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning. Mathematical Practices from the CCSS Habits of Thinking?
