Students listened to talks about math and music which was the focus of this year\u2019s event and built flute-like instruments and performed calculations during the afternoon workshop by utilizing appropriate mathematical and physical principles. Overall this was a very successful event and students were very engaged and excited. In fact, many of them expressed their desire to return to the program next year.<\/p>\n<p>The agenda for the day was as follows:<\/p>\n<dl class=\"compact\">\n<dt>10am &#8211; 10:30 am<\/dt>\n<dd>Welcome by Chair + breakfast + internet setup<\/dd>\n<dt>10:30 &#8211; 11:30 am<\/dt>\n<dd>Math &amp; Music talk by Dr. Denis Sheeran<\/dd>\n<dt>11:30 &#8211; 12:00 pm<\/dt>\n<dd>Math Jeopardy &#8211; Math Ambassadors 30 mins<\/dd>\n<dt>12:00 &#8211; 12:30 pm<\/dt>\n<dd>Lunch Break<\/dd>\n<dt>12:30 &#8211; 1:00 pm<\/dt>\n<dd>Campus walk<\/dd>\n<dt>1:00 &#8211; 2:30 pm<\/dt>\n<dd>Math and Music Workshop by Dr. Bogdan Nita<\/dd>\n<dt>2:30 &#8211; 2:50 pm<\/dt>\n<dd>Awards and certificates<\/dd>\n<dt>2:50 &#8211; 3:00 pm<\/dt>\n<dd>Group picture<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The second installment of Math &amp; Art Day was held on Saturday, April 20th at ÌÇÐÄvlog (CELS 120)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":34,"featured_media":208386,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-208385","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/mathematics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/208385","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/mathematics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/mathematics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/mathematics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/34"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/mathematics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=208385"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/mathematics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/208385\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":208387,"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/mathematics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/208385\/revisions\/208387"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/mathematics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/208386"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/mathematics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=208385"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/mathematics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=208385"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/mathematics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=208385"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
