In my [REDACTED] year of #iteachmath. The way I teach ≠ the way I was taught. Wondering if #mtbos should now be #mbbos. May also find me talking about photography, the outdoors, traveling, sports, SF, & hanging with my kids. Not necessarily in that order.

🎉 for new public transit options in the Tahoe basin this summer. 💩 👎 for our inability to act boldly, and for a deeply insufficient plan. Tahoe’s most famous destination is dealing with a ‘phenomenal’ traffic crisis www.sfchronicle.com/outdoors/art...

I said I would do this last night but I was too tired so lets do it today. A few caveats - not saying this list is exhaustive, it's just a good place to start. It's also not in chronological order because I'm a chaos gremlin

@desmos.com is killing me with all these new Stats feature drops when (afaik) I'm not going to be teaching stats next year. 😭

This post/replies has good old-school #mtbos vibes. ♾️

Think I could get my seniors to do work for the next three weeks if I slipped them this article? 😂 A Professor’s Final Gift to Her Students: Her Life Savings www.nytimes.com/2025/05/11/u...

Random sampling > voluntary response sampling (although I don't know why this would be more important when surveying young adults). #iteachstats #statschat ♾️

Someone could write a PhD dissertation on this double standard (and cite *all* of their sources, of course).

An interesting story about the psychology of changing people's minds, with a dash of data visualization. ♾️

Math Pope!

Hey #iteachmath peeps! ♾️ The @3blue1brown.com Summer of Math Exposition (Episode 4) is almost upon us, and there's a *new* twist. Grant's *hoping* for some teacher input/participation in judging. Learn more in the link or video below. some.3b1b.co youtu.be/3foYyPDp0Ho?...

Hey west coast math friends, Do I know anyone in Sacramento, Chico, Redding, Eugene, or Portland? I’m planning a solo trip up to WA in a moving van next month and I’d love to make a couple stops along the way.

I love my free breakfast this morning but what I really want is to be paid reasonably for someone with a master’s degree…

Q: Did the Giants beat the Rangers today? A: The two teams averaged 2.5 runs in the game. #iteachmath #statschat ♾️
