On this page you’ll see a listing of some of the courses I’ve taught at Kingsborough, including full lecture slideshows for these courses — which are always undergoing modifications and improvements as long as I teach them. These slideshows are in the Open Document Presentation (ODP) format, including animations and presenter notes; made with Libre Office Impress, they can be opened with MS Office and other office suites.
Regarding presenter notes, I have a small utility which can be used to extract just those notes to a separate text file (for use as a script when presenting in a single-monitor situation), here on GitHub.
General Introduction
This is a basic slideshow on mathematical philosophy that I deliver on the first day of all my math courses (from remedial algebra to discrete structures). Last Updated: 2022-03-08.
