Since #YoMos is not on Mastodon, you will get the advertisement from me :D if you are a #Bachelor/ # Master/ #PhD level student of #ecological#modelling or you supervise any, this is perfect! You get to present your project in a conference-like setting, but your audience are your peers! Big bonus for #mathematical modelling this year: The awesome @KorinnaAllhoff will give a keynote, and I will probably give a workshop on #pattern#formation in #networks!

For the 16th Prompt Of Mathober: Index, IndexOfBlips takes a former piece of SonicPi Code and adds an Index of 3 to various lines. The index is done by the following symbol : “**”

The Process
What sounds shall emerge
What sounds shall submerge
From this Process
Of adding an Index
The Ordered List
Wants to Be Seen, Wants to Be Heard
They Decided to Split Into Thirds
For They Believe in the Power of Three
The Power That Their Voices Combine
Will Be Able to Move Mountains Or At Least a Tree
That is the Wish From the Ordered List
You don't have to be a mathematician, or even "good" at #maths, to help your #children learn maths. You just have to model resilience and positivity towards what they're doing, and to avoid reinforcing negative tropes.
A #thread:
Model mathematical #positivity at times - not just when they're doing homework! Ask #mathematical questions about everything (look for patterns in things & try to explain them, essentially).
An excellent way to develop your own #mathematical#positivity is to introduce more maths-positive people into your life. You're on Mastodon: follow some [Hi! Nice to meet you 😃]. Interact with them. Ask them things. Share the mathematical discussions that you have with with your kids (include #tmwyk when you do!)
