Events of March 2010
- Circle on the Road

We participated in "Circle on the Road", a national Math Circle
conference organized by the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute
in Tempe Arizona. The event opened with a Julie Robinson Mathematics
Festival. Amanda taught participants to fold hyperbolic paraboloids
and discussed related concepts in geometric topology as well as open
problems. The other two days featured presentations by Math Circle
leaders from around the country as well as opportunities to network.
Amanda served on a panel about choosing appropriate topics as well
as a panel about promoting diversity among participants of math
outreach programs.
