SUMMARY:GEMS Workshop: Superheroes vs. Supercomputers with Professor Jeho Park of Claremont McKenna College
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n\n\nTOPIC: Superheroes vs. Supercomputers \nSuperheroes like Wonder Woman\, Black Panther\, Superman\, and Captain Marvel\, just to name a few\, all have “super” power and they save the world from “super”-villains. Well\, just one catch–they are not real. In our real world\, there are computers built for super power to save the (real) world. In this talk\, you will be introduced to “super”computers built to defeat “super”villains (i.e.\, super difficult problems). To understand supercomputing\, you will learn some (or all) of the following exciting terms and theories (which are not commonly discussed in high school classrooms): cluster\, GPU\, parallel processing\, decomposition\, shared memory\, distributed memory\, Amdahl’s law\, big data\, artificial intelligence\, deep learning\, machine learning\, and data science. \nWHAT IS GEMS: \nThe Gateway to Exploring Mathematics program (GEMS) is a series of workshops that helps excite the interests and curiosity of young students in mathematics and science \nGEMS meets once a month on a Saturday morning from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM \nGEMS is designed to reach 8th\, 9th and 10th grade students who have an interest in mathematics and science \nParticipants interact with excellent and award winning faculty\, staff\, students and alumni from each of the seven Claremont Colleges \nSPRING 2020 DATES: \nFebruary 1\, 2020 \nMarch 7\, 2020 \nApril 18\, 2020 \nREGISTRATION: \nTo register for our next event on February 1\, please click on the following link: \nhttps://forms.gle/14wMcsV5iUGN5mqNA \nANY QUESTIONS: \nPlease contact our 2019-2020 GEMS coordinator\, Josh Kiernan at joshua.kiernan@cgu.edu

SUMMARY:GEMS Workshop: Working Together without a Leader with Professor Jasper Weinburd of Harvey Mudd College
DESCRIPTION:TOPIC: Working Together without a Leader \nBees all work together by communicating and obeying the orders of the Queen. Other animals gather in swarms\, flocks\, or schools and move in complicated ways without any leader at all. In a school of fish\, each one is identical and they all follow the same simple rules. Yet they still manage to form tight bait balls and make sharp turns in unison. So a school of fish is more than just a group of fish; it is greater than the sum of its parts. In this workshop\, we’ll investigate this deep mathematical idea by thinking about groups of animals. \nAlso\, it may be fun to check out this video that illustrates some of the ideas we will be looking at: \n\n\nWHAT IS GEMS:\n\nThe Gateway to Exploring Mathematics program (GEMS) is a series of workshops that helps excite the interests and curiosity of young students in mathematics and science.\n\nGEMS meets once a month on a Saturday morning from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM.\n\nGEMS is designed to reach 8th\, 9th and 10th grade students who have an interest in mathematics and science.\n\nParticipants interact with excellent and award winning faculty\, staff\, students and alumni from each of the seven Claremont Colleges.\n\nFALL 2019 DATES:\n\nOctober 5\, 2019\n\nNovember 2\, 2019\n\nDecember 7\, 2019\n\nREGISTRATION:\n\nTo register for our next event on November 2nd\, please click on the following link:\n\nhttps://forms.gle/6LQbpRWVdGDvc97Q9\n\nANY QUESTIONS:\n\nPlease contact our 2019-2020 GEMS coordinator\, Josh Kiernan at joshua.kiernan@cgu.edu

SUMMARY:GEMS Workshop: Mathematics of Information with Professor Lucas Bang of Harvey Mudd College
DESCRIPTION:TOPIC: The Mathematics of Information \nWe are surrounded by information. Words in books\, ones and zeros in computers\, mathematical equations\, and DNA sequences are all examples of information\, but can we say something more about it? In this workshop\, we will learn about the mathematics of information\, see how it is related to concepts from physics and artificial intelligence\, and explore how it can be used to solve games. \nWHAT IS GEMS: \nThe Gateway to Exploring Mathematics program (GEMS) is a series of workshops that helps excite the interests and curiosity of young students in mathematics and science. \nGEMS meets once a month on a Saturday morning from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM. \nGEMS is designed to reach 8th\, 9th and 10th grade students who have an interest in mathematics and science. \nParticipants interact with excellent and award winning faculty\, staff\, students and alumni from each of the seven Claremont Colleges. \nFALL 2019 DATES: \nOctober 5\, 2019 \nNovember 2\, 2019 \nDecember 7\, 2019 \nREGISTRATION: \nTo register for our next event on November 2nd\, please click on the following link: \nhttps://forms.gle/RetrypdjSnoVWGKi9 \nANY QUESTIONS: \nPlease contact our 2019-2020 GEMS coordinator\, Josh Kiernan at joshua.kiernan@cgu.edu
