Dear All,
The plan for next week's installment of CAABS is to do the following: for the list of exercises from 09/10/2024 (which can be found here: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://caabsatunl.github.io/CAABS/CAABS_Fall_20... ). I will assign a problem or two to a person or two who regularly show up (including myself). With the problem you have been assigned, you will present a solution to it next week during the course of the CAABS meeting time.
Danny + Cleve: 2 Zach + Kesavan : 6 Taylor: 1 Sabrina + Sara: 4 (there is a typo in the sheet it should be "char(K)\neq 2" instead "of char(K) does not divide n") Nawaj : 5
If you have time to type up your solution in the overleaf: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.overleaf.com/8628482744fsyckxxtgwqk*... , that would be amazing. However, it is not required.
You are encouraged to work through the other problems (even if you aren't assigned any). You all are also encouraged to discuss these problems with each other outside the meeting times and even with me (after all, I am just beginning to learn this stuff as well).
My plans for future installments of CAABS are like so: Every other CAABS meeting we will have a reading assignment in the text that will be assigned. During that meeting we will discuss things that were unclear to us, questions we might have, ect..., and we will be given a new sheet of exercises. After this meeting, I will assign problems from the worksheet to be presented in the next CAABS meeting (not everyone may be assigned a problem, and I will keep track of this so that it is fair). We will then repeat this process.
I understand that not all problems are created equally, and issues may arise. So, a few things regarding this:
1. If you are unable to solve the problem you are assigned, please talk to your peers (this includes me) and see if you can brainstorm some solutions. 2. If after item 1. you are still not able to come up with a solution, that is O.K.! In this case, you will be asked to explain the progress you have made during your time to present and any ideas you may or may not have to tackle the problem. 3. If you are assigned a problem, but for whatever reason, will not be able to attend CAABS for your presentation, please let me know as soon as possible, so that I can restructure things if needed.
If you have questions and/or concerns, please feel free to contact me!
