The podcast was interesting, but I personnally found it difficult it listen to a speaker for so long and not have a face to attach to the voice! I would like to find out if her findings match the resent brain research findings.
I've misplaced my notes so I'll get back to the podcast later.
Chapter 5 in Literacy and Education discussed multimodal identity in ways that easily blend with the teaching of mathematics. Color and movement are used, in very specific ways, as math strategies when introducing new algorythms. Incorporating these types of activities into daily lessons help all students comprehend on a higher level, especially the second language students. In this case when I say comprehend I am referring to the ability to transfer knowledge from concrete to abstract.
