I’m working on fun projects. All emerge from systems thinking.
MathGirl games and Arithmaroo, our iphone/ipod touch/ipad apps, are a right-brain approach to math. 20+ years ago when my children were small, I discovered that far too many bright children were missing important steps in math. I tutored and taught small groups of children who had fallen behind. I designed a set of cards for learning multiplication facts but I never published them. My methods were interactive. Finally in touch technologies we have a medium for interactive teaching and learning.
Now my daughter Molly has partnered up with me to do the graphics and strategy and MathGirl has taken off!
Icanology.com will be a web-based socially-networked learning system for earning, rewarding, and archiving accomplishments and competencies (I can. . .) of all kinds. We’ll have a prototype to play with by the end of 2010.
My book, Men Are Easy, was published in March, 2007 (and in Czech in 2008). I haven’t done much with it recently. It’s probably time to sell the paperback rights.
I still study and write about systems theory and systems thinking. My MA is in psychology with an emphasis in systems theory and human development. I missed the International Society for the Systems Sciences 2010 meeting in Toronto.
My 3-year-old resume is available here as a pdf.
