Thisterm, I am teaching group and Galois theory. This is a heavily inquiry based learning (IBL) course, where almost all the time is spent on group problem solving. You can see the course webpage, with all of our problems, here (and the previous term's webpage here .) Like everyone, we have been told to move our teaching and office hours online.

I asked my students what tools they use to discuss math online, and several of them mentioned discord. I am currently setting up a Discord channel for office hours and course meetings. I am planning to use this to document what I have learned so far, and hope others will help.


Discord is broken up into "servers", which are subdivided into "channels". There is a list of servers you are currently logged into on the left bar. Click the plus icon to make a new channel. You'll see a screen like this:


You'll then see this. If you have interacted with people on Discord before, it will suggest you invite them to your class. (I've blacked out the names of the people I've chatted with.) Instead, select the shown link and e-mail it to your students. The channel will remain in existence and be permanently available.


Each server is subdivided into channels. Voice channels play in your headphones and listen to your microphone; text channels are chat windows. You can only have one of each active at once, but you can easily switch between them; simply click on the name of a channel to switch to it. The list of your channels looks like this; each voice channel displays under it (scribbled out in the image) who is in that channel.


Note that the past history of the text stream is continually available. So, if students have been typing a lot, it is quick for you to scroll back and see what has been said. I would suggest you encourage students to type, the same way you would encourage them to write things down when doing group work in person.


You can add bots to Discord channels. The way I know to do this is, after you have already created the channel, go to the webpage associated to the bot and click on the invite button; invite it to your channel. For example, go to and click on the Invite button as noted here:


MathBot provides a quick text interface to LaTeX, a basic calculator and WolframAlpha. If you type =tex before something, MathBot will render it in LaTeX mathmode. Beware that this means that, if you want to mix text and equations, you'll need to say something like


You can also drag and drop files into a Discord channel. PDFs turn into links; standard image files such as JPG, PNG, GIF are embedded in the stream. See here. This could be useful if your students have tablets, or have paper and cell phone cameras, so they can take pictures of their work and upload it.


I will report, however, that in a recent test run, most students found the "make image, transfer to desktop, drag-and-drop to Discord" workflow to be clunky and awkward. We are considering whether we want to use shared whiteboard software as an alternative. Other suggestions are welcome.


An easier way to share quick sketches is by pasting images directly into discord. You can draw a sketch in MSPaint or some other program, copy it the image itself from within the program (no need to save it as a file), and then paste the image into any text channel. This is also convenient way to share screenshots; Windows can snip portions of the screen with Win+Shift+S, and Mac and Linux have similar features. After taking a screenshot into your clipboard like this, it can be instantly pasted into Discord.


You can then share either a specific application or your entire screen. Others can watch by clicking your username (it will have a bright red indication that you're live), and then clicking Join Stream.


Note that you can mute your microphone when you are not talking, to cut down on static. If you frequently forget to do this, Discord's "push to talk" feature makes it so your microphone is only on when you hold down a specific key on your keyboard. See here for more.


A protocol which has worked well in large VOIP calls I have been in in the past is that, if someone else is talking and you want to talk next, type the letter "Q" in the chat window. When they finish, all the people with Q's speak before anyone else starts. That wasn't much of a problem for my class today, but I plan to enforce this protocol if it seems like some people are never getting a word in edgewise.


You can edit past messages to remove typos. Click on the ellipses in the upper right of the message, then click on the edit option. Other options here are to pin a message, so it is permenantly at the top, or delete it.


Discord is for gaming and the existing networks of friends will prove too distracting. I recommend Slack. Slack is also a platform with 116 apps listed on AlternativeTo. Browse all 116 apps for Slack. You get ten free integrations on a free account.


I was following this tutorial on how to make a discord bot, everything was working fine until 33:32 where he added the giphy stuff i had already installed giphy sdk/api, created an application, but after he made the search statement he said you can console log it so i did it, and there were some gif results coming out, which returned undefined on my console(i dunno why), then he added some math stuff, which i also did, then at the point where he added the messaging part where he also added this code files:[responseFinal.images.fixed_height.url] which then returned this on my console


and this confused the flip outta me, then i picked an alt approach, instead of doing giphy.search i didgiphy.random with the same arguments, removed the math stuff and console.log(response)the response and guess what it actually gave me a single gif!(in the console of course) then i implemented to my files:[]statement aaaaand it returned the same thing (cannot read property 'images' of undefined) im also kinda new to discord.js and javascript, also here is my entire code,


The Math Tutoring Center is a place for GVSU students to get FREE help online and in person for their math courses. Tutoring is done by GVSU undergraduate students. We are here to help with content, calculators, and more! Bring specific questions and be prepared to participate!


The math tutors work with students from grades 2-12. They are trained to work with students of all different ages with different levels of comprehension. Our tutors will meet your child where they are at.


Tutoring sessions are 50 minutes long, and it is expected that students will sign up for 4 sessions/month. We highly recommend 8 sessions/month if students are preparing for a specific test or need a lot of remedial help.


Our tutors are all college students or recent graduates who are vetted and trained by Juni. The majority are currently studying the topic they are teaching our students, and many have also tutored prior to joining Juni as well. What makes our tutoring stand out is the relationship between our students and their tutors (called instructors). Our instructors are not just teachers, but near peer role models who guide our students and foster confidence and a joy of learning.


Our tutoring sessions require:

1- A desktop or laptop computer that runs Windows or Mac OS, with a working microphone, speaker, and webcam.

2- The Chrome browser and Zoom Client must be installed.

3- A high-speed internet connection (at least 10 Mbps). We also strongly recommend headphones to help your child to concentrate, and be immersed in the virtual classroom.


We are going to be running a mentoring program for incoming freshmen in math!This is a great opportunity to provide support in the transition to college and help make Purdue a welcoming place.This program will include maintaining a supportive relationship with your mentee throughout the school year.If you're interested in being a mentor, please fill out this form.If you're interested in being a mentee, please fill out this form.


Talk to any of our officers to buy a shirt. You can do this on the discord or by coming to a meeting. Prices are $20 for a black shirt or $23 for a yellow shirt, and you get a $5 discount if you're a dues-paying member.
