Hello!

This was an eventful and productive week.

I finished my modeling for the Disks & Washers topic, and I might focus on that topic rather than also include Riemann sums.

A 3D model of a 2D area revolved around an an axis to make it 3D

A classmate and someone they knew were kind enough to help me complete my 3D prints.

Now, I need to refine my experiment’s questions, video, etc. I won’t be able to release the questions until the participants take the exam, for obvious reasons, but I might show snippets of the video I make.
