Show off your live script and win!
Hello everyone. Loren has been kind enough to let me use her blog to tell you about the MATLAB Online Live Editor Challenge. The challenge is open to students and faculty of any college, university, or degree-granting institution. It's an opportunity for students to win up to $750 and for faculty to win up to $1000. Simply show us how you would use the Live Editor in MATLAB Online to create a live script on a topic of interest to you.
For students, pick a topic you've learned about in a class or from a research project or pick a concept in science, engineering, math or anything else that interests you.. For faculty, select a topic in your area and show us how you would teach that topic using a live script. You can work individually or in teams and submit as many entries as you want. We’ll judge each entry on things like presentation clarity, topic uniqueness, creativity, and effective use of Live Editor features. If your entry is a winner, we'll feature your live script on our website and you'll receive a cash prize.
