I am now, officially, a published poet!
My poem on imaginary numbers (The Mathematical “i”) was published in the March 2013 issue of At Right Angles, a school mathematics journal. You can read my poem on my website here: The Mathematical “i”
You can download the entire issue here (it is a large download) or view the magazine in sections here.

I knew that website developers would go to great lengths to rise in Google rankings. What I didn't know was just how far people were willing to go, till I received this email. Note: I have deleted all the links and names, since that would be giving free publicity to...

Awesome retelling of the old tale... (h/t Steve Dembo @ teach42). Slagsmålsklubben - Sponsored by destiny from Tomas Nilsson on Vimeo. As Steve says (you can read his full post here) such remixing can provide interesting opportunities for teachers, particularly given...
It is rarely that I hear a talk that blows me away. We have all seen the TED talks, and their mutant offspring. The over-hyped music and catchy taglines; the speaker in front of a rapt audience; the crafted delivery with its carefully punctuated pauses and reveals,...

I am in Plymouth, England, for a week, as a part of our off-campus MAET program. I spent time today with the first year cohort, talking with them about creativity in teaching (with our without technology). One of the short (5-10 minutes) activities they completed...
Since December 2008 we have been creating a video to welcome the new year. When we made our first video we had no idea that we would still be doing it 16 years later, and, frankly who knows how long we can keep it up. These videos are usually typographical in nature,...
I had written earlier about a contest organized by Dark ‘n’ Light (an e-zine) around the theme of "IT TAKES TWO" and had shared some of my experiments, exploring this theme, using Generative AI. You can see my experiments at: It takes two: A scientific romp using AI...

I love your poem Mathematical i. I’d like to use it in a class assignment for my graduate class at McDaniel College in Maryland. The course is Reading in the Content Area II and we need to develop a Reading-to-Write Assignment for our content area.
Kim, Please feel free to use the poem in your class. That would be awesome! The only thing is that I would prefer you use this page http://punyamishra.com/2010/01/12/the-mathematical-i/ rather than the magazine layout. I didn’t like the fact that they center-aligned the entire poem. That was not my vision of what the poem should look like. If you want I can send you the poem as a separate pdf. Thanks again ~ punya
