New Blog: Mathematical Palette

February 6, 2012 GB Announcements, Miscellaneous

I will be away for three days for a teacher training in Nueva Ecija, a province about a hundred kilometers from Metro Manila, so your inbox will be quiet for about three to four days. 🙂 However, before the long “vacation,” I would like to shamelessly promote the Mathematical Palette — my new blog. Yes, my new blog!

The Mathematical Palette is not about school mathematics, but rather a blog about math appreciation. In that blog, I will be discussing the connection between mathematics and other fields such as the arts, music, poetry, and other sciences. I will also highlight the beauty and practical uses of mathematics (see Mathematical Palette: An Introduction for more details).

The first post titled Points, Pixels, and Pointillism is already live. I hope it would give you an idea of what I’m going to discuss in future posts. The site is still under construction (almost finished though), and I am very excited about it. I have several titles already queued, and I am going to write about them this coming weekend.

I hope that you will support and share about this new blog as you have supported Math and Multimedia.

New header, Carnival 20, and more

January 27, 2012 GB Announcements, Miscellaneous

A blessed morning to everyone. I have not created a math or multimedia post for today, but here are a few announcements:

Math and Multimedia has a new header image. I created it using Banner Fans, a very handy online tool for creating banners. The background image was taken from Anssi Koskinen‘s photo collection on Flickr. I chose the abacus as header because it shows the connection between mathematics and the tools used in teaching.
The Math and Multimedia Carnival 20 will be hosted by GeoGebra Applet Central. Deadline of submissions is February 18 and post date is February 20. Click here to submit your entries or email me directly.
The Math and Multimedia Carnival is accepting hosts. The earliest available schedule is March 2012. Please email me if you’re interested.
I wrote several series that I have not finished yet: Divisibility Rules, OpenOffice Tutorial, and Geometer’s Sketchpad Essentials. I have not totally forgotten them; I am planning to finish them this first quarter.
All tutorials in the GeoGebra Essentials Series have been updated to GeoGebra 4.0. I have also updated the first six tutorials in the GeoGebra Intermediate Tutorial Series.

That’s all for today. Happy weekend!

Math and Multimedia turns 2

October 5, 2011 GB Announcements, Miscellaneous

First, I’m happy to announce that Math and Multimedia turns 2 today, the World Teachers Day. This endeavor started two years ago as a blog (for my eyes only), which was supposed to be mathematical problems and solutions.

Today, it has grown quite a lot with 487 posts and 1132 email, RSS, Twitter, Facebook, and Google+ subscribers/followers. It has also reached more than 510 000 hits (WordPress Stat), averaging 21 000 unique visitors (Google Analytics) and 50 000 hits a month (WordPress Stat). » Read more
