Math Links for Week Ending Jul. 13th, 2018

As I am getting ready to hang out at the Desmos HQ for the Desmos Fellowship weekend, it seems fitting that this collaboration from other Desmos Fellows was released. If you are at all interested in honing your Computational Layer skills then these examples are just the thing for you. This newly created Desmos Computational Layer forum is the place for all kinds of code examples. It's the summer, so dive in and get coding.

If you haven't seen the benefits of students on whiteboards in your classes, I have certainly mentioned them here a lot. Here @mathletepearce gives you a lot of the research and tips that have been floating around.

And clearly they are on the same wavelength because his partner in crime @MrOrr_Geek has got some advice about the benefits of whiteboards in his classes too.
