Extractions: B IOGRAPHIES BRING HISTORY TO LIFE ARE MATH LOVERS NERDS ? By Michele Courtney OVERVIEW History is nothing more than groups of biographies interrelated over a period of time. A Biography is the the story of someone's life. A good biography brings a person to life and helps us understand what it would have been like to walk in their shoes. A good biography should be more than a bunch of details in paragraph form. Breaking down history into biographies makes the subject more interesting and they break the bigger historical story down into digestible tid bits.Your job is to learn about what makes a good biographical story and how to tell it.There are four article links in this quest. You will learn the difference between formats and styles of an autobiographical article(a self written biography), magazine interview and an award introduction. From these articles you will write the biography of Ms. Evelyn Boyd Granville, the first black women to receive a Ph.D. in Mathematics in 1949, years before the civil rights movement. INTRODUCTION In this webquest you will create a biographical story about Evelyn Boyd Granville written as a two page, grammatically correct paper.

Extractions: Editor's note The Christian Science Monitor archive includes stories dating back to 1980. Some early articles lack sufficient formatting, and will appear as one long column without paragraph breaks. We apologize for the aesthetics and hope that the information will still be of value to you. A proof that math opens doors NEW HAVEN, CONN. - Don't tell Evelyn Boyd Granville that math lovers are nerds. This child of the Great Depression and daughter of a janitor has a mission: neutralize the belief among today's students that being good at math makes you a social misfit. "There's a lot of peer pressure to be cool, to be like the rest of the crowd - and this whole word they've invented, 'nerd,' didn't exist in my day, thank goodness," says Ms. Granville, the first black woman in America to earn a PhD in mathematics, from Yale University in 1949. "You could be great at music at a young age, and nobody looks upon you as weird ... do they? We must get beyond this for mathematics. And I think we can."

Extractions: First African-American Females to Earn Ph.D. in Mathematics Marjorie Lee Browne was born in Memphis, Tennessee on September 9, 1914. Her father attended college (Memphis) in 1914, something which was quite rare in that day, and was apparently quite adept at 'mental mathematics.' He imparted his enthusiasm for mathematics to his daughter Marjorie. He had Marjorie enrolled in LeMoyne High School, a private Methodist school started after the Civil War to educate Negroes. Marjorie's father earned enough working as a railway postal clerk to send her to the best school available at the time. She eventually attended Howard University through a combination of scholarships, jobs and loans even though her college years ran concurrent with the Depression era. Marjorie Browne received her B.S. in Mathematics from Howard University in 1935. In 1939 she received an M.S. in Mathematics from the University of Michigan. Thus, she was one of very few African-American women with advanced degrees in Mathematics. Browne began to teach at Wiley College while pursuing her doctorate at the University in Michigan. In 1949, she became one of the first African-American women to earn Ph.D.'s in Matheatics. (Evelyn Boyd Granville received a Ph.D. in Mathematics from Yale University that same year). After receiving her doctorate, Browne finished off her career at North Carolina Central University until her death in 1979. Throughout her career, Browne maintained a deep interest in developing and continuing the education of secondary school teachers. She conducted numerous seminars and summer institutes to that end and, in particular, authored several works explicitly for this purpose:

Extractions: Science, Medicine, and Technology The study of genes in scientific research has the effect of further marking as "Other" bodies that are already marked as other because of race, gender, and/or class...the othered bodies of black women, for example, are no longer simply identified by their color or contour, the surface elements of their bodies; they are now also identified by the internal workings of their bodies - their "flawed genes."
