    Inquiry into the interlocution of students engaged with mathematics: appreciating links between research and practice

    No full text
    For either to be useful, links between research and practice are critical. Just as important are connections between the practice of students engaged in mathematical activity and research that seeks to understand that practice. This research report explores lessons that researchers and practitioners can learn from an inquiry into the interlocution of students working collaboratively in small groups when engaged in talking and listening to each other. We use the term interlocution to denote discursive practices of learners in conversational exchanges. Questions that motivate this research included the following. What discursive practices do interlocutors employ as they work collaboratively to understand and resolve mathematical tasks? How do these practices influence the growth of their mathematical ideas? In what ways do their discursive practices help them move from a contextualized, situated task to generalize the task or their solution? Do students' discursive practices assist them to connect and generalize ideas from a new problem to others on which they have worked?Powell, A. B., & Maher, C. A. (2002).

    No full text
    This audio appears to be the soundtrack to a tribute to or a documentary about Bud Powell that may have been put together by Francis Paudras. The audio begins with traffic sounds and the tune "Dance of the Infidels". Then there are sounds of a strong wind or storm. An announcer (or possibly Powell himself) introduces Bud Powell who performs "I'll Keep Loving You" This is followed by Bud Powell who says: "I feel fine, thank you. The doctor said I'll be well soon and I'll go home. He said it's improving fast." At 10:46, Powell performs "I Should Care" (Roost Records). At 14:40, Powell and Paudras speak to each other. Next, Powell listens and responds to Art Tatum's "More Than You Know." Powell sings "La Marseilaise." At 15:50, there is a performance of "Shaw Nuff" (with brushes). At 18:35, the audio abruptly shifts to a performance of "I'll Remember April" with Charles Mingus. Next, Powell performs "Anthropology." At 26:56, Bud Powell talks about Thelonious Monk and says Monk is his best friend. This is followed by "Round Midnight". Next is a soundtrack to a television performance by Powell (piano), Pierre Michelot (bass) and Kenny Clarke (drums) at Club Saint Germain in Paris of "Crossing the Channel" and "Blues in the Closet" (by Oscar Pettiford). The trio also performs "John's Abbey." At 47:07 Powell (solo) plays “Dusk in Sandi” (Verve Records). At 49:12, Powell, Michelot, and Clarke play "Get Happy" at Blue Note. Then there is an excerpt of an unidentified tune. At 53:32, an announcer (Symphony Sid) introduces Bud Powell, Max Roach, and Curly Russell who perform "All God's Chillun Got Rhythm". At 57:11, Bud Powell is presented an award and speaks briefly. Then there are traffic noises and sounds of a strong wind or storm. This is followed by an interview with Powell’s “I’ll Keep Loving You” playing in the background followed by the tune "Moonlight in Vermont." Bud Powell speaks briefly at the end of the audio.This project was supported by a Recordings at Risk grant from the Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR).
