Joshua Grochow<p>Has anyone played around with encouraging (but not requiring) students to teach one another?</p><p>One way of demonstrating mastery of the material is teaching it to others. I feel like if student A says "Student B really helped me understand the material" that increases my Bayesian posterior that student B understood the material really well (and also that student A understood it, since presumably after student B explained it, student A understood it at least better than they did before).</p><p>I wouldn't do this as the only, or even major, part of their grade, but it seems like if the grade is to reflect learning, that teaching it to others certainly reflects on their learning.</p><p>(Additional context: this is for a university-level elective technical course in Comp Sci, for 3rd and 4th-years mostly. I generally do flipped classroom and alternative grading - some combo of ungrading, mastery-based, standards-based, but I'm open to ideas. The class has about 55 students, so whatever it is can take some time but not be *too* time-intensive on me &amp; the one TA.)</p><p><a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/AlternativeGrading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AlternativeGrading</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/grading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>grading</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/teaching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>teaching</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/education" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>education</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/CSEd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CSEd</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/ComputerScience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ComputerScience</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/CompSci" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CompSci</span></a></p>

Charo del Genio<p>New paper!<br>How can we detect the presence of communities in networks with higher-order interactions? For instance, by maximizing hypermodularity! Also, this formulation will allow you to leverage tensor spectral methods to do it. Additionally, the paper also argues that the "overfitting" of modularity methods is actually just people applying them where they are not supposed to be used. And, as a byproduct, there is an explanation of why higher-order SVD works so well in classification tasks in machine learning. Oh, the code is available to use in your own projects (link in the first comment). And moreover, the code includes an efficient data structure for higher-order networks that is independent from the community detection method and that you can also use in your own work. 😎</p><p><a href="https://journals.aps.org/prresearch/abstract/10.1103/58dr-wktc" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">journals.aps.org/prresearch/ab</span><span class="invisible">stract/10.1103/58dr-wktc</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/networks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>networks</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/complexity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>complexity</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/physics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>physics</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/maths" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>maths</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/CompSci" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CompSci</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/graphs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>graphs</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/higherorder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>higherorder</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/hypergraphs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>hypergraphs</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/community" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>community</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/detection" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>detection</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/algorithm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>algorithm</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/communitystructure" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>communitystructure</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/modularity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>modularity</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/hypermodularity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>hypermodularity</span></a></p>
