I updated my Job Interview Advice page, in case anyone is interested. In the Spring 2008 semester I will be teaching       MA219 Calculus III (Sections A and B) and       MA323 Combinatorial Geometry (i.e., origami math!) The textbook we'll be using for this class is Project Origami, a book I wrote last year. It'll be available in the bookstore. Fall 2007 Classes: My classes for the Fall 07 semester are       MA219 Calculus III (Sections A and B) and       MA343 Intro. to Real Analysis. Both of those courses have Blackboard pages if you want more information. Email me if you have any questions about these courses!

Book news: My recent book is Project Origami: activities for exploring mathematics. (AK Peters website, cover, TOC) I'm currently working on another book, but it's going slowly... Talk news: I'll be giving a talk at the Teaching Contemporary Mathematics conference held at the North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics, Jan. 25-26, 2008. I'm also an invited speaker for the Illinois Section of the MAA's Spring Meeting, April 4-5, 2008.

There are a lot of things on this site. As it's grown they've gotten all inter-mingled and some of the links go in circles. Below is a list of the main things here, but feel free to explore!

Origami-related Origami Math Pages LOTS of stuff there, including diagrams of models, tutorials, animations, a bibliography, and links. Check it out! Origami Model Gallery Every day is Halloween! Flapping Bat Action Model Origami CD Case PDF Diagrams, GIF Diagrams This has been a very popular model. Some folks at Michigan Engineering Software and Hardware put together a script that lets you type in song titles and will print them out onto paper that is ready to be folded into the case. It's at www.papercdcase.com Information on the APA imagiro Student-related Merrimack Blackboard I use Blackboard in all my classes. Go there to check out your grades and stuff! Here are some web pages of courses I've taught in the past: MA 114A Discrete Mathematics MA 219A Calculus III, Fall 06 MA 223A Topics in Geometry, Fall 00, Fall 06 MA 244A Combinatorics, MA 343A Intro to Real Analysis (Fall 99, Fall 01, Fall 03), MA 323A Combinatorial Geometry Mathematica Labs for Calc III. I developed these during a year I spent teaching at the University of Cincinnati. Math-related Curriculum vitae This isn't my official CV, and may need to be updated. If you want an official one, email me and I'll send you a PDF of the most recent version. Papers. (Like, research papers and preprints) Job interview advice HEY! I edited the proceedings of the 3rd International Meeting of Origami Science, Math, and Education (3OSME). Take a look at the table of contents.
