Our Feb. 16 class: At Terra Breads Olympic Village

Hi all! Next week is UBC Reading Week, and we will hold our class off campus at Terra Breads Olympic Village, 1605 Manitoba Street at False Creek  (follow link to Google map).  Terra closes at a few minutes after 7:00, so please try to arrive around 4:15, buy yourself a coffee or snack, and we'll stay through till closing time.

Here are our readings for next week's class, which is on mathematical word problems:

1) My article on A linguistic and narrative view of mathematical word problems

2) Torulf Palm on word problems as simulations of real-world situations

3) Greer, Verschaffel & De Corte on ways that people learn to approach word problems
