    interested in the learning and teaching of secondary mathematics. Participants explore the Hungarian pedagogy, in which a strong and explicit emphasis is placed on problem solving, mathematical creativity, and communication. Why Summer@BSME? Today’s teachers are expected to provide students with opportunities to struggle productively towards understanding, and the Hungarian pedagogy has the potential to play a critical role in this endeavor. At Summer@BSME, we are excited for our participants to develop

Children will unknowingly take those concepts they learned on their doorstep and use them, later, in the classroom. “At the time, I never thought much about it,” Thirumurthy said. “But there is probably a relationship between designing kolams and mathematical concepts.” When Thirumurthy returns to southeast India this fall, she will be looking for other

Hoagland’s senior capstone project focused on FBI crime statistics using information collected throughout the past 30 years. His project, titled “How Victim Offender Relationship Correlates with Weapon Use and Homicides,” examined trends in homicides and murder circumstances. “I’m not going to be the guy on ‘FBI’s Most Wanted’ talking about
