"We Gather in Ignorance..."

[stoutfellow]

My student and I had a productive session today. She's gotten hold of a whiteboard at home; she writes her calculations on it, photographs them, wipe and repeat; she then e-mails me the photos.

While we were discussing her work, I saw a few things she wasn't quite clear on, and tried to clarify them. But her work... She's using the techniques I've taught her, but she's using them in directions I hadn't anticipated, and as a result she's discovered a few things I did not know. (I told her so, which pleased her immensely.)

Her attacks are a bit crude, but she carries them through. I suggested a few things which might add some polish; we'll see how that comes out. In any event, I'm very pleased with her.

Wait! Women are no good at math! I know because this is what we've always been told by They Say! :)
