    Since 2012 the University of North Carolina at Greensboro (UNCG) has held an annual summer school in computational number theory aimed at first- and second-year graduate students. In 2020 we were in charge of running the school, entitled An Introduction to Ergodic Theory via Continued Fractions. Given the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak, we decided, in mid-March 2020, to run the school entirely online. In this article we will describe how we carefully tried to preserve as many desirable features of an intensive summer school experience as we could online. Since surveys indicated that the participants were uniformly pleased with their experiences, we hope that our account will help others who wish to organize similar online events.

    The goal of this chapter is to describe different techniques used to measure knotting in open curves. Note that there is no "agreed upon" definition for describing knotting in open curves. As a result, we describe the context motivating each definition and then describe some advantages and disadvantages of the different approaches.
