Math is everywhere, influencing our daily lives in ways we don’t always see. That’s why we’re hosting a screening of @CountedOutDoc—a thought-
provoking documentary about the hidden power of numbers. Check out the trailer here. youtube.com/watch?v=M5a2la9W…
We are 12 days away from our free screening at Hill-Murray School. Come watch and discuss with us. #CountedOut #ReimagineMath Details and RSVP in this link. eventbrite.com/e/11411415079…
The new documentary @CountedOutDoc explores how math impacts everything from the economy to politics. Hill-Murray is hosting a free screening on March 25. All are welcome and I'd love for as many people to see it as we can get! eventbrite.com/e/11411415079… #CountedOut
Introducing Professor Nimble, the totally Analog AI. Created by students in the @HillMurray1 Machine Learning Club, this AI Marvel is learning to play a version of the game Nim. Follow this thread to track its progress.
And Professor Nimble's updated winning percentages. Its doing so well that tomorrow we are going to erase its memory and start over with different initial conditions!

I rounded up a group of interested and excited 6th-12th grade students and we got to work. There was a lot of fun stuff involved in the planning and development of this project, but I'll put that in different thread.
