Math in Society
Math in Society is a free, open textbook. This book is a survey of contemporary mathematical topics, most non-algebraic, appropriate for a college-level topics course for liberal arts majors. The text is designed so that most chapters are independent, allowing the instructor to choose a selection of topics to be covered. Emphasis is placed on the applicability of the mathematics. Core material for each topic is covered in the main text, with additional depth available through exploration exercises appropriate for in-class, group, or individual investigation. This book is appropriate for Math 107 (Washington State Community Colleges common course number).

Is There a MOOC in Your Future?
This bundle contains shared resources from panelists at the 2012 Frontiers in Education Conference. Please feel free to comment on the bundle or on individual links. Panel Description: This plenary session will examine current trends and future prospects in online education. Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) have gotten a great deal of publicity in the last year, although the most widely-known MOOC offerings do not capture all of the richness of the original MOOCs. Much of the attention paid to MOOCs in the press has been centered around the idea that they may challenge the organizational structures and cost models of higher education. The participants in this session will address many of these issues through a moderated discussion and a question and answer session with the audience.
Astro Anarchy: An experimental 3D-animation from my image of IC 1396
I have tested a new method to publish my 3D-images as a form of Lenticular prints. For this technique to work, I need series of images from different angles, in this case 24 images are needed. Lenticular printing is actually an old technique but in past few years it has become much more sophisticated. The results can be stunning visually, image plane disappears and object floats in and outside of the frame.

The “Lost” Steve Jobs Speech from 1983; Foreshadowing Wireless Networking, the iPad, and the App Store
In 1983, Steve Jobs gave a speech to a relatively small audience at a somewhat obscure event called the International Design Conference in Aspen (IDCA). The theme of that year’s conference was “The Future Isn’t What It Used To Be”, which looking back seems all too fitting. Circumstances being what they are, very little is available on the Internet regarding this Steve Jobs speech. In my extensive research, I could find only one recording of this talk, which itself was just posted in June of this year. This talk received a fair amount of attention at the end of August, after it was mentioned in a Smithsonian Magazine article written by Walter Issacson, Jobs’ biographer. However, the recording currently available is not complete. It ends after about 20 minutes, which corresponds with the end of Jobs’ prepared speech. Left out is almost 40 minutes of a follow-up question and answer session where Jobs offered incredible insight into his vision of future technology. I now present this reco

30 Tips on How to Interview Like a Journalist
As a 16-year tech journalist and founder of a brand journalism business, I’ve conducted tons and tons of interviews. While I have “lots of experience” I also realize it’s a synonym for “I’m getting stale.” In an effort to reboot my interview style, I decided to look for inspiration from other journalists. This article began with me questioning fellow journalists for their best advice on how to interview. What follows is some of my own advice, but a ton more from industry colleagues on how to conduct a journalistic interview for print, blog, radio, TV, and films.

I Suck at Drawing: Skipping Storyboards in Motion Graphic Design | Visual.ly Blog
As a designer, I have always thought that there was something broken about my process. That somehow, throughout all the years I’ve learned to move a mouse, I have been designing “wrong.” While I can point to many aspects of my process that could use a bit of retooling, the most egregious example in my mind has been my complete and utter disregard for the venerable storyboard.
