Mathematics for Human Flourishing Discussion Group

    Ended Sun, Jun 5, 2022

Mathematics is not all about plugging into formulas, practice drills or passing the test. According to mathematician and math professor Francis Su, studying mathematics answers a fundamental human desire to flourish, i.e. to live well. In his lovely book “Mathematics for Human Flourishing”, he outlined pathways to human flourishing through learning and doing mathematics in thirteen chapters on flourishing, exploration, meaning, play, beauty, permanence, truth, struggle, power, justice, freedom, community and love. In each of the sessions, we will discuss one of the chapters and reflect on our own journey of math learning and teaching, and explore how we could rethink math education with a renewed perspective, as a math student and a math teacher/tutor/coach, or parent/guardian. We will also work out some math problems that exemplify the topics discussed in this book. We will meet approximately every two weeks starting from October 30th on Saturdays 7:30-9:00pm, unless otherwise noted). This group is open to tutors, teachers, parents/grandparents/guardians, and students at all math levels. Both young and grownup are welcomed.

Significance tests (hypothesis testing)

I will review the concept of hypothesis testing (type I and type II error, p-value), how to conduct hypothesis testing, and how to interpret the results from hypothesis testing, in the context of hypothesis testing for population mean and proportion.
