Activities

Continuous Professional Development
I presented CPD session Set-ups and applications in remote and online learning in 2020 at the University of Malta Junior College. I have also participated in several CPD sessions.

Newspaper Articles
I contributed at least one mathematics article every year from 2016 onwards to the Sunday Times of Malta (see Articles).

Maths Circle
I held mathematical activities for Form 5 and sixth form students at the Department of Mathematics, University of Malta from 2017 to 2019.

Departmental Facebook Page and Group
I created the Junior College Mathematics page as subject coordinator in 2019, and kept it vibrant with fun puzzles and interesting information. This page was replaced by a Facebook group in 2022.

Science in the City
I am involved in the Science in the City Coordination team at Junior College. My first spell was from 2019 to 2021, as subject coordinator of the college; my second spell started from 2023 to the present day.

Junior College AIMC Conference
I have been involved in the Junior College conference, nowadays called the Annual International Multidisciplinary Conference (AIMC), as part of its scientific committee for a long time, from 2019 onwards. I have also presented in this conference several times – indeed, every year it was held from 2017 to 2023. Moreover, I have chaired two keynote speakers in this conference: in 2022 (Prof Christopher James) and in 2023 (Prof Irene Sciriha).

True Maths
I created an Enrichment Programme (EP) for Junior College students called True Maths, where participants get to discover what mathematics is really about. (It is about proving theorems and spotting patterns.) This is done by several games. The EP also gently introduces students to machine learning and AI.

National STEM Career Expo
I helped promoting mathematics to a young audience at Esplora in January 2020.

MATSEC Mitigation Measures
I was part of the team setting COVID-19 mitigation measures for the Pure and Applied Mathematics examinations in 2020 and 2021.

Malta Mathematical Society
I presented several talks for the MMS, including a Christmas Talk in 2020 and this talk in 2022. Furthermore, on August 16, 2022, Giorgio Grigolo and myself produced a YouTube video explaining the basics of Combinatory Logic, which was a submission for the Summer of Mathematics Exposition 2 competition. With 23K views, this video has by far the most views for the MMS YouTube channel.

Sounds of Science
Since 2021, I am one of the six members of a team that publishes a weekly science page on the Sunday Times of Malta.

Unconventional Science Careers Day
In December 2022, I held mathematical activities for secondary schoolchildren at the University of Malta.

ĊineXjenza
I was a guest speaker for the discussion of the movie Stand and Deliver in December 2022 for a ĊineXjenza session.

Radio Programmes
On February 24, 2022, I was invited in a radio programme ‘Radio Mocha Malta’ to speak about mathematical truth. On March 6, 2025, I was again invited in the radio programme ‘Radio Mocha Malta’, this time to speak about polynomials and the Polynomial Reconstruction Problem.
