Contents
Table of Content
Rhea has many facets, and a single page is certainly not enough to describe them all. But since everybody is busy, here is a quick summary.
Cool Software, Programs, and initiatives
- Assimi: a visual text search engine. Enter your keyword search in the Assimi field in the left-side-bar and see the connections between your search results.
- Writer-in-residence Program: selected students writing learning material for a stipend.
- Peer Legacy: students sharing reflections and advice about the classes they took, for the benefit of future students.
- Collective Table of Formulas: all formulas in one place, along with cross-links to related Rhea pages!
- Dropbox: convenient electronic homework collection and file storage.
- Homework peer review system: enables students to grade each others homework or project reports.
- Liaison Program: alumni and Industry partners sharing their advice with students.
- Virtual Poster Sessions: increase the impact of your poster session by posting it online for future reference and dissemination.
- Roar: Online test/homework taking software developed by students (beta version).
- Cross-campus discussions: involving students from all majors and backgrounds.
- Class Wikis: a central repository of class wikis, facilitating cross-campus communication and coordination.
Student Contributed Learning Material
One of the core functions of Rhea is to enable students to create and share learning material with other students (and the rest of the world!). There are many different types of learning material, such as:
- Collective Problem Solving: sharing solutions on a common page and giving each other feedback is a great way to help each other learn!
- Bonus point student projects: a great way for instructors to encourage their students to do more, and for departments to scout for hidden talent among their students!
- Lecture Notes: taken by students and neatly typed.
- Student-led Recitations Notes
- How to's: detailed instructions written by students who learned it the hard way and want to share their newly gained knowledge with the rest of the world.
Here are a few notable pages created by students:
- Honors project for linear algebra
- Generating music using MATLAB (Pachelbel Canon)
- Similarity analysis of images
- A guide to partial fraction expansion
- Learn about Tetris.
- This MA 181 page about Leibniz's slowly converging series led to an REU in mathematics for John Mason and Josh Hunsberger (under the direction of Prof. Steve Bell). See page 14 of the Math Department newsletter) for more details.
- A Program to compute generators that can be used in MA375.
- Look at this cool way to display code here!
- Fascinating exploration of the imaginary number i
- A hilarious disclaimer for a math class
- Travis Safford playing Hail Purdue with Matlab
- How to get through math grad school at Purdue.
Learn How to Use Rhea
- Where to begin
- Various Help Page:
- How to use Rhea - for instructors
- How to use Rhea - for students
- Sandbox: a place to experiment at will.
Solved problems and Collective Problem Solving
Learn what collectve problem solving is on this page. Below are a few examples of collectively solved problems:
- Computing the Discrete Fourier Transform
- Computing the z-transform of a DT signal
- Fourier transform of a sampling
- Computing the z-transform and its ROC
Rhea also contains pages where topic specific solved problems (most by students) are listed, such as
Instructors: increase the effectiveness of your teaching by discussing problem solutions online with your students. Keep these discussions for future reference and cross-posting. Here are some examples:
- Practice problems on probabilities
- Practice problems on "Signals and Systems"
- Practice problems on "Digital Signal Processing"
Click to get a list of all problem solution pages featured on Rhea.
Group Pages
Student groups, special projects, and researh groups can create a Rhea page to coordinate the activities of the group, facilitate communications, and reach out to the Purdue community and beyond. Here are some group pages:
