​

Key Discussion Points from Day 1:

• What do we really want students to learn?
• Do they really need such a strong focus on Calculus?
• What if the focus was on Graph Theory? Or something else?
• Maybe its really that we care about strong mathematical thinking?
• Maybe we care about igniting their passion about mathematics?
• Is university level math for everyone?

​

• How do we deal with cheating?
• What if we encourage cheating and assume they can use resources?
• How do we change our questions on assessments?
• What and how do we assess?
• How do we manage giving feedback on alternative assessments?
• Is it about responsibility rather than accountability?

​

• How do we encourage community building and why is it important?
• How can we foster peer connections?
• What role does community play for students learning mathematics?
• Why does it seem that they prefer to be disconnected/anonymous online?
