  6. Ian Stewart’s (2005) book Game, Set and Math includes 12 puzzles linked to the 12 days of Christmas. A favourite is Five Gold Rings. The five gold rings are arranged to maximise the overlaps. At every overlap there is a diamond. You have diamonds of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ... carats. Arrange the diamonds so the total number of carats on each ring is the same.

    Try starting small—just two rings, two overlaps and each ring has a total of three carats (1 + 2). Now three rings, there are six overlaps, arrange diamonds of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 carats so each ring has the same total.

  7. Seasonal Values
    Each of the symbols in the grid has a value. From the totals given for each row and each column can you work out what they are?

    The eight symbols have values 1 to 8 and each has the same value wherever it appears.

  18. I want to reach out: Do you know any good(!) paper for benefits or downsides of online course? Or of online vs. on-site courses?

    I did a little research, found nothing compelling, but I am _not_ an expert in this field and might very well be overlooking something.

  19. The first two episodes of MT Talk discuss articles from Mathematics Teaching 296 atm.org.uk/MT-Talk

    Episode 1
    Elizabeth Bridgett, Lisa Coe and Jay Timotheus compare and contrast Mike Askew's 1999 article, ‘Teaching numeracy: will we ever learn?’ from MT168 with Jane Hawkins' much more recent, 2025 article, ‘Why purposeful talk in mathematics lessons matters’ in MT296.

    Also mentioned in this episode is the 1999 paper ‘Arbitrary and Necessary Part 1: A Way of Viewing the Mathematics Curriculum’, Dave Hewitt's first in a three-part series in For the Learning of Mathematics, as well as Mike Askew’s book, ‘Transforming Primary Mathematics’, published by Routledge in 2011.

    Episode 2
    Lisa Coe, Fin McLaughlin and Jay Timotheus talk about John Mason's 1987 article, ‘Only awareness is educable’ from MT120, alongside Tom Francome's 2025 article, ‘Everyone can think mathematically’ from MT296.

    Fin recommended two books: ‘Thinking Mathematically’, by John Mason, Leone Burton and Kaye Stacey (Pearson, 1982, and 2010) and ‘Researching Your Own Practice: The Discipline of Noticing’, by John Mason (Routledge, 2001).

  26. Remember:
    #Learning is a consequence
    1) of thinking/reflecting/insight
    2) of disciplined practice ("exercise", if you will)
    - NOT of #teaching.

    #corporatelearning #qomenius #didactics #pedagogy #elearning #edtech #orgdev

  27. We believe that great #learning technology (#edtech) should "create spaces for thoughtful interaction/reflection/practicing" - and not just "organize content, somehow."

    It is probably true that there aren't too many approaches around that promote those "learning spaces". But #qomenius is one of them.

  29. #LearningBS, Volume 2:

    - The notion that attention spans are decreasing, and that thus #MicroLearning, #BiteSizeLearning etc. are in order. It's true that #media is changing, but the nature of #knowledge acquisition and disciplined #practice (for achieving #mastery) is not

    - The notion that #talent or "being gifted" exists. Such ideas are opposed to #learningscience, and as sticky as belief in gods

    #learning #education #pedagogy #edtech #learningdesign #highered #corporatelearning #didactics

  30. #LearningBS, Volume 1:

    - The idea that people have "comfort zones." They do not!

    - The idea that people can or need to "unlearn". Forgetting is a thing - unlearning is not!

    - The idea that "learning styles" exist. Everybody learns somewhat differently, but there are no "visual", "oral" or whatever types!
