Hi there. I'd be up for this. It has been a while since I've had time to really work together with SAGE people. On a note that is intermediately related, I had been thinking of a five video series, each 5-10 minutes, that would be screen-casts of my explaining the basics of SAGE. There would be a basic one, a graphing one, a calculus one, a matrices one, and maybe a number theory one. I'm thinking of a "calculus one" and below level audience. Of course, the vids would be perfectly useable by higher-level students too.
Has this been done before? While it wouldn't take too much time, I don't want to invest my time in something redundant! I have a stockpile of humorous examples, like the nervous-breakdown function: f(x) = sin( exp( 1/(2-x) ) ) which is fun to graph from 0 to 3. Thoughts? ---Greg p.s. I'd love to work further on my "SAGE" guide, including SAGE projects for the precalc, calc 1, calc 2 levels. Often I find that conversations with TAs can be productive sources of ideas.
