Keynote: "Moving, Doing, and Learning Math"
Keynote Speaker: Hortensia Soto is a Professor and Graduate Director in the Department of Mathematics at Colorado State University. Her research centers on the teaching and learning of K-16 mathematics where she adopts an embodied cognition perspective. She currently serves as President of the Mathematical Association of America.
Abstract: Have you ever noticed that when we speak, we use our hands as we speak. The same is true when we speak about mathematics. Try it right now! Think about a math idea and see where your hands go. How do they mimic the mathematics? In this presentation, we will engage in some activities where your body will speak mathematical ideas. I will also share how knowing that our hands and body can speak mathematics can help us to better intentionally teach mathematics. Please bring your fun meters so we can experience some of these ideas together.
