Consider the function

f(x) = 1 / ( ⌊x⌋ + 1 − {x} )

and the sequence of numbers

0, f(0), −f(0), f(f(0)), −f(f(0)), f(f(f(0))), −f(f(f(0))), ...

Congratulations, you've just listed every rational number exactly once!

3rd period AP Stats students are estimating the average word length in a book using a one sample t interval. Does this help predict reading level? Can you guess what book they are currently reading in their English classes? @BellaireHigh @bhsmathdept #apstats

Yeah I have to stifle laughter when I’m asked this question

[Glen Russell @RussellMath]

A chi-squared question that nobody asked for. #apstats #statschat #mtbos

Folks attacking teachers act like our goal is to work remotely. In reality, teaching online is both more work + far less joy. We don’t want to teach online—we just want ourselves, our students, + our families to be safe. We could be fighting for safe in-person schooling together!

What if the way we are taught to think critically about information we encounter is making us more vulnerable to misinformation peddlers? For the second column in my attention series I profiled @holden who thinks our info crisis is an attention crisis https://t.co/ib4LMvDF7y
