Thanks again to Grant Sanderson (@3blue1brown) for sharing the technical details of his streaming set-up. It's already made a big difference in my approach to video this year! 3blue1brown.com/blog/livestrea…

In 1611, Johannes Kepler conjectured that two arrangements, known as “hexagonal close-packed” and “face-centric cubic,” provided the densest possible packings of spheres in three-dimensional space. The conjecture was not completely proved until 1998. quantamagazine.org/the-math-of-so…

A few months ago, @joboaler and I had a wide-ranging chat about math and teaching that some of you might enjoy. We touched on infinity, dividing by zero, the feeling of being an imposter, the importance of struggle, inquiry-based learning, and lots more. youcubed.org/resources/stev…

Is there an easy way for two people in separate locations to write on the same virtual paper or blackboard? Like this: I write on my tablet. You write on yours. Everything we write shows up on both our tablets. Possible? I would want this for remote office hours & collaborations.

It's been a while since my last science thread, so let's talk about how the curvature of space and time leads to gravitational orbits!

Beyond his research, Wilson’s mentorship has had a profound impact on a new generation of researchers like Corina Tarnita, who is exploring the hierarchical organization that permeates nature. quantamagazine.org/a-mathematicia…

What number comes next in this sequence: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16? There’s plenty of evidence that the answer is 32, but it could just as easily be something else. That’s why in math evidence is helpful, but proof reigns supreme. quantamagazine.org/where-proof-ev…

Without mathematics, there would be no applied or theoretical science. There would be no atmospheric sciences, nor would there be architecture, physics, chemistry, biology or anything else. #worldenvironmentday environmentalscience.org/mathematics#.X…

Hey there #MTBoS! I found out I'll be teaching a section of 7th grade math in 2019-2020! Woot! What are some of your favorite resources? It's been a few years since I taught a Math 7 course, and I'm PUMPED to get back in there! #iteachmath

Hey #MTBoS: A fellow HS math teacher asked me about resources to learn to teach math better. Where to start? I told her about @ddmeyer's TED talk and @MakeMathMoments podcast episode 1 and @TracyZager #BecomingMath. What else? #iteachmath @LaneWalker2 @joboaler

I just presented a session at #OAME2019 on using Twitter as a PLN. Here are some tips to move beyond just "Lurking" and to increase the presence of your Tweets. Feel free to share more ideas in the comments #MathChat #MTBoS #ITeachMath
