Welcome to my very simple home page, that I like to maintain mostly to remember the old times! (:
My professional employee page at Universitetet i Bergen is this one.
Cheers!
I deeply admire Federico Ardila, a mathematician and professor at both Universidad de Los Andes and San Francisco State University. His essay "Todos Cuentan" (Notices of the AMS, 2016) is an inspiring expression of his pedagogical and transformative efforts.
I humbly believe in his approach to tackle the underrepresentation problems in mathematics and science. His ideas build on the following foundational axioms.
Axiom 1. Mathematical potential is distributed equally among different groups, irrespective of geographic, demographic, and economic boundaries.
Axiom 2. Everyone can have joyful, meaningful, and empowering mathematical experiences.
Axiom 3. Mathematics is a powerful, malleable tool that can be shaped and used differently by various communities to serve their needs.
Axiom 4. Every student deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.
