Dear Sage-devel, The JMM are in Washington, DC, this year, and I wanted to point out a few opportunities/events of interest to Sage folks.
First, David Joyner, Marshall Hampton, and I have organized a panel session on using open source technology in undergraduate courses. We will definitely have David speaking on Sage, as well as someone from R and WebWorK. It will be Tuesday afternoon of the conference, and I *strongly* encourage anyone who gets this to attend this panel if they are at the JMM. Also, there are several contributed paper sessions of the MAA which might be relevant if someone here has something really new to say and is interested in presenting Sage to a wider audience. See http://www.maa.org/meetings/cps_jmm09.html . Some sessions I think might be relevant include "Demos and Strategies with Technology that Enhance Teaching and Learning Mathematics", and "Mathlets for Teaching and Learning Mathematics". There will also be some other panel sessions related to OSS and software use in general which may merit attention. I think there might be other Sage-related opportunities as well, but I am not in the loop on the status of those so I won't be a spoiler on that. I barely got the chance to meet many now-familiar names at the San Diego ones, so I hope to see many of you there! - kcrisman --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
