A-Level Physics teachers! Please find below a 161-page booklet of 105 Qs on Electricity (Ans too in another file). These were from the old Salters Horners course. Pls repost if you find them useful! #Physics drive.google.com/drive/folders/…

We are two weeks out from the start of "21st century mathematics", a program I run for K-12 math teachers. (Register now!) The program helps teachers connect the math they teach with some math that has been discovered in the 21st century. The program is flexible, free, & online.

Ten squares. The first one has perimeter 14. The second one has perimeter 22. Can anyone find ones with smaller or bigger perimeters? Or other examples that match these? Intrigued? Check out "21st century mathematics", an enrichment program for teachers: justinlanier.org/21st-century-m…

Hi! In July I'm once again running a program for K-12 math teachers called "21st century mathematics". Its goal is to help teachers to connect math they teach with some math that has been discovered in the 21st century. Info+register: justinlanier.org/21st-century-m… Pass it along!

A change in my thinking about mathematics over the last few years is that I’ve come to believe that it is not useful to think of mathematical objects as being “poorly behaved” or “pathological” — everything that is true is beautiful.

@CarolLeonnig @SecretService How about I protected and defended the Constitution and laws of the United States of America and never once tried to undermine them. I did not make a fool of myself on TV. I did not post lies on social media. I never by word or deed stated or suggested that our country should…

This is what competence looks like. It is also what diversity, equity, inclusion look like. The purpose and effect of DEI is that hiring, pay, and promotion be based on merit. Without Title 7 of the 1964 Civil Rights Act creating the Equal Employment Opportunity Act (hat tip to…

10 years ago today, I launched the Math3ma blog. At the time, I wasn’t sure the site would resonate with anyone, but I’ve been amazed by all that’s happened over the past decade! To celebrate, here’s a new post on category theory and language models 🥳math3ma.com/blog/magnitude…

As I said in a recent lecture, LaTeX got what I call the "Knuth factor" -- the ratio of the amount of time it takes to LaTeX a paper vs write it by hand and ask a secretary to typeset -- below 1; so everybody switched voluntarily, no coercion needed. Similarly, once the de…

Then I took the bus back and while walking home understood the geometry of a moduli space I had been stuck on for a week, checked in detail on the kitchen whiteboard, and now I feel very happy. #maths 2/2

Today I spent three hours with a student, which was wonderful. Then I had lunch with a friend a rarely see, then I went for a walk in the Miramare park with my mid season jacket only, as it was quite warm. 1/2

I had a convo with a first-year student today who could not believe me when I told him I am discovering new math as part of my job. How sad that our education system has limited the minds of our youth so much that they can't imagine the infinite mathematical possibilities
