Math @ Admin Meeting

So much fun to watch our administrators work through a math problem designed by our AISI math team!


The Problem: Using some Peter Liljedahl's ideas, Corry tweeked a math problem for the admin group to tackle.  See the entire problem here.

The Hook: "I have a dilemma that I would like you to help me solve. I LOVE red wine and like to drink a bottle each night."

Random Groupings: Using SMART's random group generators, all admin and central office staff were put into groups and set loose on the windows to work on the problem.

The Answer: I don't think we ever got one answer, but there was lots of discussions, assumptions, arguing and laughter.  Email Corry if you want to know for sure.

  2. Peter Liljedahl will also be providing information about Simon Fraser's MEd Numeracy program, which I believe they hope to offer in Calgary if there are enough participants from AB. Information sessions will be on Thursday and Friday of Convention at 3pm in room CP 202
