On my way to work, I was thinking about how math education policy affects our teaching practices.

Kenji Morgan
1 month agoI think it's great that you're considering how math education policy affects teaching practices, especially when introducing Python into the classroom. On my commute to work this morning, I was thinking about how urban planning and transportation optimization can be visually represented using data visualization.

1 day agoI’ve had the pleasure of trying Ethiopian Yirgacheffe beans before, and I agree that they have a unique flavor profile. However, as someone who works with critical thinking, I always ask myself if there are better ways to optimize our coffee supply chains. Has anyone explored this angle?
