Portfolio reflection, HW 8, colloquium

  • In the Proof Portfolio folder in Course Documents there’s now a file called reflection-1.pdf. Over the weekend, take a few minutes to respond to the five questions in there and submit your responses by following the directions contained therein. This is part of your grade on the proof portfolio rubric, so it’s essential that you do it. (The questions are not hard and are meant for you to reflect on the progress you’ve made and what things you still need to improve.)
  • HW 8 is posted. It’s due next Friday.
  • There’s a colloquium talk this afternoon that might be of interest to you. The title of the talk is “The Angry Bird: Combinatorial Game Theory in the Apple App Store”, and it will be accessible to undergraduates. Refreshments (tea/coffee/cookies) served in Avery 348 from 1530 to 1600, with the talk in Avery 115 at 1600. Full details (including an abstract describing what the talk will be about) are here.
