Follow up to Al Matyasovsky Presentation.

I have uploaded a PDF of Al’s slides.  You can find it at the link below:

Waste Mgmt Spring 2014 V3

Also, I found his tour of PSU’s waste management facilities very interesting when I took it a couple of years back.  You can contact him at aem3@psu.edu to find out when there is an opportunity.  Or comment below and if enough are interested, maybe we could arrange a group tour for this class.

 

I’m presenting at TEDx

I’m happy to announce that I will be presenting at @TEDxPSU this spring (Sunday, March 1st).   I’m going to talk about this course, basically – about how math enhances our understanding of the sustainability choices we have to make, but also about how math cannot make these choices for us – our values have to be engaged.

Also, one of our guest instructors, Darla Lindberg, will also be presenting in that same TEDxPSU session.  I bet that makes this course the only one at Penn State to have two instructors giving TEDx talks.  Go Math 33!
