@ozguresentepe Nice! I have always been curious about the Penrose and algebra connection.

[Parker Glynn-Adey @pgadey]

@ozguresentepe @LongFormMath Yup -- It is time for some sleep.

[Parker Glynn-Adey @pgadey]

@eric_boelling Yes -- Circles and tangents are definitely relevant. :)

This year, I ditched chalk-and-talk and tried distributing "fill in the blank" versions of my slides and lecture notes in advance of class. Vaguely, I feel like this is more accessible and promotes students learning.

Is there any literature on this?

#UndergraduateSeminar is looking for speakers!
We're looking for math / comp-sci / STEM talks for undergrads.

@rccgames Oooh! I've requested it from the library.

My foundational read is The Well-Played Game.

@sallycol Are these slides public anywhere? They look lit. 🔥

The end of term vibe.

"Just in general, is there anyway for future times you teach MATB42 to just go over basics before you mention something new? A lot of students are finding this course cumbersome simply because the teaching in lectures is virtually irrelevant to exams."

@AnnGagne LOVE IT!

@divbyzero Have you considered taking a patch of the tiling as your layout? @cs_kaplan's visualizer outputs SVG which might help.

[Parker Glynn-Adey @pgadey]

@msciguy Yeah -- Another mystery here is how should I have acted once the person took that out? They got the example, but none of the idea.

[Parker Glynn-Adey @pgadey]

Halp!

During office hours yesterday, I had a student that was frightened and unwilling to write down a 3x3 matrix to check if it was an example of something. They wrote down one entry and froze. Coaching and "let's just try something out" didn't help.

What would you do?

[Parker Glynn-Adey @pgadey]

@SitDownPee Tried that one. They didn't budge.

[Parker Glynn-Adey @pgadey]

@AnnGagne Sweet -- Let's get a thing going by e-mail.

@divbyzero @cs_kaplan Love this quote from the paper: "The shape is almost mundane in its simplicity. "
