Wanna understand what happened in Iowa & why Evangelicals voted even stronger than they did in 2016? And why it’s quite possible we’ll have Trump for a second term? It’s all in Jung. This from The Undiscovered Self, 1957. BTW, this applies equally well on both sides of the aisle.

@alicekeeler He really should plan a half dozen or so super engaging and interesting lessons of his own, then teach them. Bring in stories from working in the real world. And most importantly, get ready to be lied to, ignored, and told to “f@ckoff” by people ¼ his age without flinching

@alicekeeler @TheCoachRich Wait, what!? I should closely examine the results of my AI assistant? Maybe this is something we could teach kids about when using any LLM? /s

Dear #Mathchat folk, Discuss so a 3rd grader can understand if it is always the case that adding six copies of any number will always result in a number evenly divisible by six. If you disagree, provide a counter example. As always, play nicely.

@RyanMath6284 @alicekeeler Yes it is. We need better answers to the “Why is this important?” type questions

@RyanMath6284 @alicekeeler No, what is the purpose of crowding the curriculum with tasks like this? In all my 35 years of math teaching and research, I have never seen an argument that persuades me to maintain the practice.

@DavidBegnaud Nahhh you’re not middle aged because of getting the membership. Now if you start going there just to eat the free samples as a light lunch alternative… Chances are you’re either middle aged or parenting teens who will turn that light lunch into a competition.
