About the Course
I helped restructure the MATH195W: Mathematical Writing course at UC Irvine, with the guidance of Professor Roberto Pelayo. During this process, I centered the course around collaboration and wrote the introductory resources for a 5-week crash course on $\LaTeX$ and Beamer.A version of these resources is available under $\LaTeX$ Resources
Selected Evaluations
These changes were largely successful, as is recounted by anonymous students in department-conducted final course evaluations:This class was the best one I have taken at UCI and Sireesh was a huge part of that! He was super accessible to talk to and very encouraging. The lessons were engaging and his group work projects really got the students involved and working together. — Fall 2024, Mathematical Writing
Sireesh was able to keep what could have been a dry and tedious topic both fun and interesting. His energy and enthusiasm for both the subject and our individual successes kept me excited to return to class. — Fall 2024, Mathematical Writing
Sireesh led a huge number of small group discussions in groups divided by our research topics, and discussing our projects with like-minded peers really helped our papers and our growth as writers. [...] One little suggestion is maybe [he should] walk around the classroom less frequently, [as] it makes me feel a little dizzy... I'm working on it! — Fall 2023, Mathematical Writing
