It May Not Be Official Yet, But...

I received an email from my instructor today, confirming that I did well on the last test and congratulating me on completing my degree :-)  He also said that it was the grade on one homework assignment that kept me from scoring 90% in the class, so he dropped that grade and gave me an A in the course.  I'll take it!

My favorite math course was Discrete Optimization. I enjoyed the Konigsberg Bridge problem, the Traveling Salesman problem, and the Postman problem. Reviewing for that course for my cumulative final exam was actually enjoyable.

I enjoyed both education courses, but since I'm a "practical" guy, I got more out of the testing/assessment course than I did the educational theory course.

If I were to pick one specific tidbit of knowledge that has made me a more knowledgeable teacher, it's probably a better understanding of why a matched-pairs t-test is preferable to a 2-sample t-test if data can be gathered in such a way.
