Math Links for Week Ending Apr 28, 2023

Featured Links 


This week is the OAME2023 conference. Since 2003 I have presented at every conference except 2005. Most years I present entirely new topics though there are some repeats. This year I did a new session on Equation Strips and re did my session on Desmos Challenge Creator plus I updated my 2006 presentation on Math Podcasts for the virtual conference. Most of the slide decks can be found below:

OAME2023 - Now that there are some expectations about circles in the MTH1W curriculum, I'm happy to see people talking about them. Check out some of @MSBJacobs' slides for these and other topics

OAME2023 - I have shared a lot of @DavidPoras' stuff here but it's always nice to see him live taking us through some #Polypad tips and tricks

Seeing as we just mentioned circle theorems, above, it is fitting that @Mathigon shared this activity dealing with how Eratosthenes was able to measure the circumference of the earth using some of these ideas. 


Here's another compilation post from @MathsJem. They do the same as me in finding stuff and sharing their finds so I always appreciate when people do that

Here is a suite of premade activities from @Geogebra that cover many topics in a dynamic way including Number Systems, Ratio and Proportion, Geometry, Coordinate Geometry, Probability, Statistics, Area, Volume and Surface Area. Thanks to @MrValencia24 for pointing this out

Another point that I agree with @Howie_Hua on, use some common sense. Just because things look complex, they aren't.

If you are not sure what Midjourney is, it is an AI where you can put topics in and it will try to create images based on your topics. In this case, it's the interpretation of these mathematical concepts that produce these awesome images. Be sure to look at the whole thread.
