I wonder if admitting that I put a question on my Statistics midterm yesterday making fun of @elonmusk is enough to get me blocked by him…

[Waterloo M.Act.Sc. Program @UW_MActSc]

This could be you next year!
The current and graduating MActSc Classes meet at Convocation each year, and you could be a part of it. Apply for the MActSc Class of 2024 by Feb 1.

A year ago I was interviewed as part of a @HEQCO project to look at the experiences of women in academic STEM fields. Their latest report features a couple of my thoughts. I'm so proud to have been a part of this important research! https://t.co/nq7tVeiCoK

[Diana Skrzydlo @ActSciProf]

@digiwonk I'm on this committee (along with 3 of 6 teaching fellows) and every question we're asking faculty about for our consultations has been about teaching. A critical mass of us do want the focus to be on teaching! Reach out to Arts rep @JamesMSkidmore with your suggestions.

@AstroKatie @Perimeter Welcome to Waterloo!

[Diana Skrzydlo @ActSciProf]

Have been greatly enjoying the @CAUSEweb electronic Conference on Teaching Statistics (or eCOTS) this week! Lots of awesome ideas for incorporating data, cognitive science, and communication into statistics teaching.

[Waterloo M.Act.Sc. Program @UW_MActSc]

We had a great online networking session on Friday. Thanks so much to our wonderful advisory board members from @canadalifeco @Deloitte @FFH_TO @weareforesters @ivari_canada @Manulife @MoodysAnalytics @MunichRe and @SunLife! Here's a photo from our gathering in @Kumospace_

Happy Women in Mathematics Day! On this day we remember Miriam Mirzakhani for her remarkable contributions to Mathematics.

Bonne journée des femmes en mathématiques! Aujourd'hui, nous nous souvenons de ses remarquables contributions aux mathématiques.

[Diana Skrzydlo @ActSciProf]

So happy to teach the @UW_MActSc Class of 2022 for the first time today. Teaching in person is like riding a bike (in the sense that you don't forget how, but if you haven't done it in a while you get a little bit sore!) I can't wait to explore the actuarial profession together.

[Diana Skrzydlo @ActSciProf]

Now there are PUPPIES on video as the entertainment in the break! This conference has everything! #UWTL2022

[Diana Skrzydlo @ActSciProf]

Amazing ideas for taking small steps to implement Universal Design for Learning in courses from @EdDevTrevor and many others! #UWTL2022

[Kyle Scholz @kwscholz]

#UWTL22 Day 2! Join us at 11am for our Igniting our Practice plenary with Sean Geobey (@sgeobey) and Diana Skrzydlo (@ActSciProf)!
