Welcome to mathedu. I hope that subscribers will find this a useful
place 1) in which to discuss their ideas, and 2) as a forum for
exchange of information, for example: who is trying the same methods in
different parts of the world?
To send messages to all subscribers, write to mathedu@msri.org.
Please note that if you receive a message from mathedu and you then hit
the r(eply) button, the message will currently go only to the previous
sender. I am currently trying to change this default.
To remove yourself from the mathedu list, send a message
(subject line blank) to majordomo@msri.org
unsubscribe mathedu [YourEmailAddress]
The last argument is optional.
Please keep to the subject matter of this list (mathematics education at
a post-calculus level). However, if a point about teaching young
children is relevant to our subject, then feel free to include the point.
If possible, be brief. Messages which can fit in a single screenful are
more likely to be read. Humour and sarcasm are frequently misinterpreted
in email. Write straightforwardedly, or give very heavy-handed signals
that you are trying to be funny or sarcastic. Some Mac and Windows
mailer programs send email out in formats which can't be read by other
mailers. Please avoid this. Don't put unusual characters (such as
control characters) into your contributions. Be respectful of other
contributors. When you write something, try to imagine that the readers
are in front of you and that you are talking directly to them. If you
must complain about spelling, grammar etc, write email direct to the
contributor, and don't inform everyone on the list.
