Table+of+Contents

While there are shortcuts available to each major section of the wiki at the side of the page, this has a bit of an overview of what each of those sections entail.

__** The x Commandments **__ These are my guiding principals regarding teaching and education.

Content Here is the mathematically relevant material.

Community Here is a set of things that I have contributed to the class or practicum wikis.

Mirror Mirror... This is a place for reflections about my life in the program.

Pedagogy Here I will have some teaching methods, styles, and techniques that I may use with a brief description outlining each.

Resourcefulness This is focused on resources that I have or have hunted down during my time at the Faculty of Education. The section is broken into three main components:
 * Literature
 * Technology
 * Web-Based

Technology This is a list and reflection on the technologies that I have come across or have been exposed to during my time at the Faculty of Education.

Notes to Self This is just a mass storage dump of anything and everything that I come across during my career. It is a raw unfiltered and unrefined resource. I use this to place brainstormed ideas and work on them at a later time

Legalities The appropriate citations, when necessary.

__**Minds On**__

For my topic, I have decided to go with a challenge question. I don't necessarily expect any student to figure it out (although I am sure a few will, they always do) but I want them to want to figure out the answer. The content is a bit cheesy humourous but I can live with making fun of myself if it gets the class involved.

__Challenging Question__

//So I was foolish and waited till the end of July to buy my copy of Eclipse to read on the plane ride. The book already cost 15 dollars before tax. So now instead of charging me only the PST which was 8% tax, I now have to pay 13% tax. How much would I have saved by buying the book before July? //

Something borrowed... from another's Wiki

This is a prezi presentation by Alison Blank. It demonstrates that mathematics doesn't necessarily have to be A --> B --> C. Maybe, just maybe, we should let them see what C is and be interested in it, and then show them that there are handy tools that they can use to find out the answer.

A prezi by Maria Andersen.... also like Alison Blank's in terms of questioning the linearity of teaching math.
