The Role of Advanced Math in Teaching Performance Modeling
ACM SIGMETRICS Performance Evaluation Review, 2023How should we teach performance modeling without assuming a deep mathematical background? One approach is to focus on rigorously studying relatively simple stochastic models that do not require too much math background. But this may leave students underprepared to reason about systems in practice.

Proceedings of the fifth international conference on Tangible, embedded, and embodied interaction, 2010
This paper describes a series of interaction design sketches we created to supplement mathematics curricula. These sketches were deployed in a variety of secondary school math classrooms in the San Francisco Bay Area. The activities purposefully use visualization and embodiment to engage students with the math concepts of geometric transformations and ...
