AMATYC 2021 IGNITE talk: Save Your A** With Assessment.

These are the slides from my IGNITE talk at AMATYC 2021.  The entire series of talks will be posted on the conference webpage.  Clicking on each image will open the full size image.  If you have never seen an IGNITE talk, each speaker gets exactly 20 slides, and they must auto-advance every 15 seconds.  So the talks are lively.  

Briefly, my talk was focused on the fact that instructors are most needed on the assessment side.  Especially now that almost everyone has recorded videos, made notes, etc.

AMATYC 2021 Themed Session - Using Sounds in Desmos for assessment


 Howdy, This is the post related to my 15 minute talk at the AMATYC conference.  My idea was to create some "Google resistant" assessments for my students while we were all first dealing with COVID.  I used the accessibility function within Desmos to have it play the sound of the function.  In this talk I just introduced this idea, and showed a few examples.  The slides and sound files are below. I did put in to do a full 50 minute talk about this at AMATYC 2022 in Toronto.

*** The sound files are WAV files, so when you click on it it may take a few seconds to load and start playing.
