Technology Notes

Yes! I am extremely excited because this year Pi Day will be bigger than ever!! Pi Day is of course celebrated nationally by math teachers and students on March 14th. I started the tradition of observing the special day at school— this year will be our 3rd annual celebration. In previous years I have gotten my students and other faculty members to order and wear Pi Day shirts on 3.14. I have also shown Pi videos, played Pi songs, and had students work on projects such as making Pi posters in my classes. This year is going to be amazing!!! Leading up to Pi day I will not only be giving my students many new activities to work on, but I will also be developing lessons for teachers of all subjects to use on that day. We are also selling Pi Day shirts in the bookstore that were designed by students. There will be a Pi contest to see who can memorize the most digits of Pi and there will be daily announcements made from now until Pi day with great facts about the mathematical constant. As we get closer to the big day I will be making updates so check back! Check out the links below for more information and get involved!!

Pi Day page on the Math Department Website that I will be updating soon.
My HomeworkNOW page on Pi Day that I will be continuing to update as Pi Day approaches.
My Del.icio.us bookmarks on Pi Day that I add to any time I find useful or interesting information on Pi.
