I made a tiny tune in #desmos calculator! @desmos.com

If you have ever felt that 200cc in Mario Kart 8/Deluxe is much faster than it should be, your suspicions are correct. Based on the formula followed by the other engine classes, the speed the game pretends is 200cc is actually 415cc instead.

Many of us who read Project 2025 have been saying from the start that The Regime has a unifying goal of destroying US scientific infrastructure and causing the collapse of Universities. We were called “hysterical”. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

BREAKING: A federal judge has blocked the Trump administration from dismantling the Department of Education and ordered the administration to reinstate employees fired in a mass termination. This can't happen without cnogressional approval, she ruled. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Was there any disclaimer that it was written using AI? Is that required if journalists? bsky.app/profile/jaso...

I spoke to the person who AI-generated the Chicago Sun-Times reading list. Says he's very embarrassed. This was part of a generic package inserted into newspapers and other publications, so likely to run elsewhere. He didn't know it'd be in Chicago Sun-Times www.404media.co/chicago-sun-...

At least the flat-earthers aren't in a position to kill people with their ideological idiocy

The comment period for this ends in 3 DAYS. Please leave a comment telling them EVERYONE should be able to get covid boosters. www.regulations.gov/commenton/FD...

Please comment! No need to select a category in order to post a comment, fyi.

HELP? Does anyone have (or know of) a unit/module for high school math that teaches students how LLMs work while also teaching the relevant math (encoding, matrix operations, probability, etc)? cc: @jedediyah.com @danshuster.bsky.social @dandersod.recursiveprocess.com @comapmath.bsky.social

6:01am and already in tears.

Californians, please take a moment to support the funding of the University of California in our state budget! And share with others. Parents of kids in CA should be making their voices heard on this! #EduSky #ITeachMath #AcademicSky

Some great ideas from @aledaklassen at the #OAME2025 conference on Co-Capacity building with small group instruction docs.google.com/presentation... #MathChat #MTBoS #iTeachMath

QUESTION! High school math teachers, how many days (60 min day) would be reasonable for a curriculum to be paced for in your setting? (Like, how many days would you ACTUALLY have after all mandated testing, assemblies, etc) #iteachmath #mtbos

🔑🚪It’s time to escape! Check out the newest Desmos escape room! To play yourself: student.desmos.com/join/3jjxj9 (no need to log in but it will save your progress if you do) Here’s the teacher link to run it with a class: teacher.desmos.com/activitybuil... Have fun!

So I've been looking more carefully at HS math curricula these days. One popular 9th grade option is paced for 143 days, NOT including any of the 'optional' lessons or any of the cooler 'extras' they have. Another is paced for 172 days! That's just not realistic.

Hi @ottensam.bsky.social ! Do you have any writing on your team’s 1) use of and 2) findings about using “incremental PD” with teachers?

Math Ed is lucky to have @mathematize4all.bsky.social in our field. She is knowledgeable and thoughtful in her critique of the ‘Science of Math’ claims. And, importantly, points to the central issue of what kind(s) of math proficiency are we talking about? podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/m...
