‟Visual Algebra, Intro to Proofs, and other AI-resistant upper-division math courses” by Matthew Macauley <mattmacauley@gmail.com>, Clemson University

Abstract:

Before AI, my students submitted weekly homework sets written by hand. Today, they use LaTeX to write and typeset their own professional-looking textbooks. Somewhat ironically, the emergence of AI has helped them strengthen, rather than weaken, their mathematical writing skills. I’ll tell you all about this, and more. If time permits, I will show you how I have AI-proofed my abstract algebra class by infusing hundreds of visual elements, along with feedback from former students who have gone on to PhD programs. For those unable to attend, additional details and materials are available on my course webpages.
