Holiday Celebration Trivia (Blooket and GimKit)

2nd session

Join us in celebrating holidays from around the world with fun trivia! 🎊🌍🎊
Dive into the festivities with engaging questions and occasional informative videos, offering a unique opportunity to explore both well-known and lesser-known celebrations.

The dates for these sessions aren't fixed, as I aim to schedule them based on the most convenient timing shortly beforehand, and they are subject to change. We'll communicate any adjustments and availability in the group chat, so I suggest engaging with it to some extent. Additionally, expect more meetings than those currently listed, as I typically add them just a few days in advance.

  • Co-hosts are welcome to join, edit, host, and contribute to this series if they wish. :)

I'm looking forward to celebrating with everyone! 🎉🥳🎉

Pomodoro Study Sessions

53rd session

💙🫶⭐Hey guys! Come study with me in this helpful series! I love attending Pomodoro sessions since they help me a whole lot when I want to study for a specific amount of time due to my struggles with procrastination. So, I thought, 'Why not start my own series because I know for sure I am not the only one who goes through this 😅!' I will mostly (not sure yet) host sessions after 4PM EST because that is when I start studying individually. 💙🫶⭐

  • I sometimes hold sessions on weekends after 1PM EST upon request.

I'll make the series as long as possible!
I enjoy hosting longer sessions because I tend to get deeply involved in my work. 👀 ...

My goal for this series is to help others and myself work productively and to reduce procrastination with the Pomodoro timer 💙!

We are open to more Co-hosts! Feel free to apply regardless of experience and you can earn hours! :)
  • Hannah became a Co-host on 03/21/2024.
  • Noah became a Co-host on 03/26/2024.
  • Louise became a Co-host on 04/29/2024.
  • Aayan became a Co-host on 05/01/2024.

Abstract Algebra Crash Course

12th session

We'll take a brief look at one of the first courses you will take in university if you would like to become a math major. We will begin with the fundamentals—learning some basic set theory, working with complex numbers, and setting the definitions of rings and fields. Then we'll prove some intuitive things that we know about number theory and modular arithmetic (i.e. working with remainders). From there we will generalize our methods to other areas, such as doing "number theory" and "modular arithmetic" with polynomials and much more! No calculus knowledge is necessary for this series; however, high-school Algebra 1 and Algebra 2 are necessary. (BTW do you know that this series would be called "Algebra 1" in university?? 😂😜)
