Talk 54: Learning Math From the Land, Art and Environment: Holistic Considerations. Stories of Math: Storytelling and (w)holism
Listen now
Description
What is the role of stories in the learning, teaching and engagement with mathematics? This session centres stories and storytelling as a (w)holistic approach to mathematics education. Maths is in us, it is around us and is interconnected to the land, air, water, plants and animals, and there are stories connected to this to rethink the ways in which maths is taught and learned. During this session, participants will connect to their own stories of mathematics, and look at the ways artists and designers tell stories of maths through their creations. To deepen understanding of storytelling and mathematics, we will look at (w)holistic approaches to co-creating maths learning spaces that consider the heart, spirit, body and mind.
