Well, funny you should ask for pictures! I was teaching Harvard Calulus II (text by Deborah Hughes-Hallett) at the local college this past July. Since I had been working a lot with PC Tablets and PC Projectors all year to give my lessons at my High School, the college let me use their new lec

Great work guys! I will do what I can to get some high school math teachers to 'take the plunge' and start exploring. I'm sure they will appreciate these groups and how helpful you all are! Tom On Aug 14, 7:44 pm, J Elaych wrote: > Awesome!  I used a sage notebook hooked up to a video project

Awesome! I used a sage notebook hooked up to a video projector for my final presentation in a statistical physics class. I used random matrices and random graphs and just scrolled through a notebook with code, images, latex and html to give my talk. I too mention sage every chance I get. So is

I'm giving a talk at MathFest about the Hoffman-Singleton graph, and plan to work up as much of the material as possible with Sage (so be prepared for my eventual questions on the graph theory routines). I'm also speaking to the Project NExT group about open licenses (mostly about textbooks), but
