SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Stephen DeBacker\, the Mahendra Parekh Director of the Center for Inquiry Based Learning\, Arthur F. Thurnau Professor of Mathematics\, Inaugural Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Even the Greeks ...\n\nA discussion of Inquiry Based Learning at Michigan\n\nThis event will be delivered both in person and virtually. \n\nThis talk is about Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL)\, a pedagogical method that emphasizes discovery\, analysis\, and investigation as means of deepening students’ understanding of mathematical ideas and applications. Following a brief survey of the history of IBL at the University of Michigan\, we will attempt both to convey the power of IBL and to explain the meaning of the talk’s title through an immersive experience. I will conclude with reflections drawn from my own teaching and learning experiences.\n\nIf you are unable to join us in person\, \nJoin from PC\, Mac\, iPad\, or Android:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/99717161623\n\nPhone one-tap:\n+16469313860\,\,99717161623# US\n+13017158592\,\,99717161623# US (Washington DC)\n\nJoin via audio:\n+1 646 931 3860 US\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n+1 305 224 1968 US\n+1 309 205 3325 US\n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n+1 646 876 9923 US (New York)\n+1 689 278 1000 US\n+1 719 359 4580 US\n+1 253 205 0468 US\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n+1 360 209 5623 US\n+1 386 347 5053 US\n+1 507 473 4847 US\n+1 564 217 2000 US\n+1 669 444 9171 US\n+1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)\n+1 778 907 2071 Canada\n+1 780 666 0144 Canada\n+1 204 272 7920 Canada\n+1 438 809 7799 Canada\n+1 587 328 1099 Canada\n+1 647 374 4685 Canada\n+1 647 558 0588 Canada\nWebinar ID: 997 1716 1623\nInternational numbers available: https://umich.zoom.us/u/axMP7qvbv

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LSA Collegiate Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:This event will take place both in person and virtually.\n\nStuart Kirsch\nRoy A. Rappaport Collegiate Professor of Anthropology\n\nLecture Title: Open Futures: Anthropology of the Postcarbon Transition.\n\nLecture Abstract: I introduce research that considers efforts to decarbonize concrete\, sequester carbon in mangrove forests\, increase the circularity of metals\, and regulate global supply chains\, including the practices of accounting that connect them.\n\nSarah Veatch\nDaniel Axelrod Collegiate Professor of Biophysics\n\nLecture Title: More than just a phase:  How cells exploit phase separation at membranes to sense their environment.\n\nLecture Abstract: Just like a vinaigrette in the kitchen\, membranes and other biomolecules can undergo phase separation within cells. This talk will explore how cells harness the physics of these phase transitions at the cell periphery to detect subtle changes in their world. \n\nL. Monique Ward\nJacqueline S. Mattis Collegiate Professor of Psychology\n\nLecture Title: The Sea We Swim In: Exploring the Impact of Media’s Sexualization of Girls and Women\n\nLecture Abstract: The mainstream media have emerged as prominent forces in the gender and sexual socialization of American youth\, with teens consuming nearly 8 hours of media a day. This content is often highly gendered\, offering specific scripts and expectations for women and others for men. Unfortunately\, portrayals of femininity are somewhat limited\, with heavy emphasis on their beauty\, sexiness\, and sexual appeal\, and less attention to their intellect and other competencies. How might regular exposure to this content shape how girls and young women view themselves and their abilities? Objectification theory argues that regular exposure to sexually objectifying content gradually socializes girls and women to objectify themselves\, to view themselves as objects to be valued based on their appearance. Doing so is believed to lead to diminished well-being. Most initial research testing this theory focused on scripted TV and magazines\, on predominantly White samples\, and on consequences for women’s body image. In this talk\, I summarize my research that has worked to expand these approaches by testing contributions of traditional and social media\, by investigating associations for White youth and girls of color\, and by reporting consequences for girls’ and women’s mental health\, romantic relationships\, and academic cognitions.            \n\nIf you are unable to join us in person\, please click the link below to join the webinar.\n\nJoin from PC\, Mac\, iPad\, or Android:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/99095807232\n\nPhone one-tap:\n+13017158592\,\,99095807232# US (Washington DC)\n+13052241968\,\,99095807232# US\n\nJoin via audio:\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n+1 305 224 1968 US\n+1 309 205 3325 US\n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n+1 646 876 9923 US (New York)\n+1 646 931 3860 US\n+1 669 444 9171 US\n+1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)\n+1 689 278 1000 US\n+1 719 359 4580 US\n+1 253 205 0468 US\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n+1 360 209 5623 US\n+1 386 347 5053 US\n+1 507 473 4847 US\n+1 564 217 2000 US\n+1 778 907 2071 Canada\n+1 780 666 0144 Canada\n+1 204 272 7920 Canada\n+1 438 809 7799 Canada\n+1 587 328 1099 Canada\n+1 647 374 4685 Canada\n+1 647 558 0588 Canada\nWebinar ID: 990 9580 7232\nInternational numbers available: https://umich.zoom.us/u/al2XftQSw
