  • This fall I am leading 18.919 the "Kan Seminar" and 18.A09 a First Year Advising seminar on Symmetry.
  • MIT Topology Seminar
  • The Electronic Mathematics Education Seminar is in its fouth season! I am happy to report that I have been joined by Tara Holm in organizing this seminar, and beginning this year it is supported by TPSE-Math, the AMS, and the MAA. It's open to all! Here is a listing of the talks so far.
    This volume of Lectures on Algebraic Topology is scheduled to appear in October 2021. You can order it from this website. A version with different pagination is available here.
    The Handbook of Homotopy Theory has now been published. You can order it from this website. Price reductions will appear at random times! Here is the table of contents.
  • We have developed a suite of Javascript "Mathlets" for use in courses in differential equations, calculus, and probability. The have been brought up to a11y accessiblity standard. This site contains a training course, introducing the MIT Mathlets and their use.
  • I am proud to be involved with the MIT-Haiti Initiative. Here is a film about this initiative, prepared in conjunction with the visit to MIT by Haitian Prime Minister Laurent Lamothe, and here is a piece about it written for the MIT Faculty Newsletter in August 2016.
    In addition to many workshops and a couple of conferences, this initiative is in the process of producing a series of Instructional Guides, in Kreyòl, for active learning in Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Mathematics.
    Under a grant from J-WEL pK-12, we have built the Platfòm MIT-Ayiti to gather material created by Haitian educators in the K-12 space and beyond.
    Here is a J-WEL Webinar about this project.
    To see what Haiti looks like from the air, go to Rene Durocher's spectacular website.
  • I am a mentor for The National Alliance for Doctoral Studies in the Mathematical Sciences.
  • The Educational Collaboration Space is a flexible educational collaboration tool built to support formation of communities of educators over time and space. It is a freely available Wordpress site featuring many specially designed plugins. Visit the MIT News item about this. It was also picked up here by Inside Higher Ed. Its development was supported by the MIT Office of Educational Innovation and Technology and the NSF.
  • Crosslinks is a wiki designed to help MIT students make connections between their courses.
  • Current editorial positions:
    Geometry and Topology
    International Journal of Research in Undergraduate Mathematics Education
    Journal of Homotopy and Related Structures
    Tunisian Journal of Mathematics
