• Develop and deliver a 30—40 minute presentation featuring advanced mathematical topics or applications suitable for gifted 8th-grade students, including questions based on the presentation that are suitable for small group work and for students to present to each other at the end of each day.
  • Introduce concepts that extend beyond typical middle and high school math coursework (e.g., number theory, combinatorics, graph theory, discrete mathematics, logic, etc.).
  • Create an interactive learning environment that fosters exploration and mathematical curiosity.
  • Adjust presentation style and materials to be accessible without oversimplifying or diluting content.
  • Maintain a professional and enthusiastic presence throughout the seminar series.
  • Coordinate with the other session leader if choosing to collaborate.
