Jonathan Matte has been teaching
Mathematics for 20 years, the last 13 at Greens Farms Academy. Formerly the
Mathematics Department Chair, he is currently the 12th Grade Dean and Coach of
the GFA Math Team and the CT State Champion Quiz Team. A former Jeopardy!
contestant, Jon's outside-of-the classroom passions lie in the world of puzzles
and games, both as a competitor (in the American Crossword Puzzle Tournament
and the World Puzzle Championships, among others) and a creator (orchestrating
the long-running GFA Puzzle Hunt and crafting puzzles that have made their way
into GAMES Magazine). In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program
of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like
experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark
deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized
events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED
Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx
events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
Grateful thanks to JONATHAN MATTE, TEDxGREENSFARMSACADEMY, TEDx Talks and YouTube and all the others who made this video possible
