Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Mathematics educators and cognitive scientists are exploring the importance of embodied, multisensory, arts-infused experiences as a central component of mathematics learning, countering pedagogic traditions that valued only abstract, disembodied representations. Dance has great potential for sensory, fully-embodied mathematical engagement -- but how can abstract mathematical concepts be danced? I introduce the work of acclaimed Canadian modern dancer Sarah Chase and her explorations involving number theory, connecting her work to a Bridges 2009 paper on multisensory representations in number theory and exploring attentional aspects of her cross-patterning movement work and simultaneous verbal storytelling. This paper will be accompanied by an original short film of Sarah Chase’s dancebased teaching.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
