Math Links for Week Ending Apr. 24th, 2020

Featured Links
Hey, it's public knowledge now. Everyone knows that OAME 2020 was cancelled but what you don't know is that behind the scenes we've been working diligently to bring you a smaller version in the online setting. To that end we bring you OAME 2020 Virtual featuring 30 live sessions and over 20 pre recorded sessions on May 6-9th. When you register you will be registering for the conference but not picking sessions. We will just be sending you links each day for the day's sessions. The conference is free to all but the recordings (both live and pre recorded) will only be open to the public until the following Monday. Check out the full program and get registration details at the link below

I did a panel discussion this week and talk about some math related and other tools for online teaching but really I think the cool part of this was talking to @watnunu talking about her experiences currently teaching in China. And if you want, here's the slide deck

It looks like @3Blue1Brown is jumping into the online teaching game and one thing I liked about this was the answer to the question "When will I ever use this?" - "The movie Coco probably used the quadratic formula over a trillion times"
