Course Description

This class focuses on preparing and presenting math talks. The first few weeks introduce the main skills, learning from panels, guest lectures, and discussions. In the remaining weeks, participants practice presenting math topics to classmates that are selected through class votes, and feedback is provided for improving presentations. The material in the topics is new to the students, but not too advanced, so participants learn some math also. The course is aimed at students who have taken at least one proof-based math class, and preference is given to students who have less experience presenting math to others.
