Summer of Math Exposition

I really liked the handmade animation style. I think the rhythm was too fast, but the speech is clear. I don’t like seen someone in the corner (I am old and with ADHD), but is common today so I believe is just a thing of taste. Good video.

Motivation: 1 Novelty: 0 Clarity: 8 Memorability: 1

A great explanation of the Monty Hall problem, but this topic is already extremely saturated online.

The energy and positivity of this video are great. The narrator could maybe edit the script and slow down slightly, to help understanding.

Since this is a short , high energy clip it cold easily be used in the classroom which is exactly what Grant specified. However I don’t think many people are judging the competition according to this standard, so it won’t do anywhere near a well as if the videos were actually tested on school aged kids.

The “animation” is a problem . The paper characters are fun but they could be bigger and more eye catching and then very basic video editing to remove the hands could make this presentation a lot better.

Overall this is a good short presentation which is well made and narrated but would be a lot better with some simple animation changes.

Very obviously well planned and rehearsed presentation! And a lovely medium for the age groups selected. Your choice of explanation and style are very memorable and clear, even for a very well known problem. And a lovely summary at the end for a clear motivation. Honestly, the only thing I’d suggest are nit-picks: the audio editing could use a touch up, the mat used to film could be cleaned a bit more, and the lighting could be softened a bit. But those are barely noticeable behind a very succinct video.

A popular game show, a popular problem, countless videos, still it was fresh, at least for me.

Loved the paper cuts design and the fast pacing. Also, the various ways you kept on convicing why the answer is switching.

Thank you.

Keep going.

This was fun, obviously this problem has been talked about to death, but you know what, this is the teacher’s edition of SoME and I liked how pedagogical this one was. The presentation was fun with the paper and an enthusiastic voice and the explanations were clear for the most part (save for the bit with 1,000,000 doors, in part because the paper was insufficient to display this, but also I see multiple ways someone could get confused by the choice of using specifically “777,777” as the correct door)

Also, having the Guinness World Record for the highest IQ is hardly relevant information to anything ever

A nice animation, but it may not be easy to follow for struggling students who need to take notes. I would introduce some concept maps and include this shorter video as an example of a lesson on probability tree diagrams. This would be with the aim of applying it in schools.

Very cool way to demonstration!

The video was good, but the presentation seemed a bit rushed. I think it could be improved by slowing things down a bit.

Really engaging and fun video! I like that it was explained from multiple angles, and I like the use of emotional hooks and the moral lesson at the end.

The explanations were overall very clear, but I was initially a bit confused at what happened at 3:08 - there were so many bits of paper that it overloaded my brain. Also, I think the video would have been even better if you explained what all the PhD academics got wrong - why did they all fail? What trap were they falling into? This was a key question that was bugging me at the end. Similar to this, it would have been nice to tackle common misconceptions.

Overall, great authentic-feeling video. This is one of the better Monty Hall videos out there.

Format is an automatic win! Presentation was really good.

The hush comment was slay 💅

With the same format and a non-common, non-trivial topic, you can go further!
