The tensor product of vector spaces (or modules over a ring) can be difficult to understand at first because it's not obvious how calculations can be done with the elements of a tensor product. In this video we give an explanation of an explicit construction of the tensor product and work through several example computations, such as finding a generating set.

![I Want to Play a Game: Proving [0,1] is Uncountable
The interval [0,1] is uncountable, and there are many ways to prove that. Cantors diagonal argument is a classic example. But theres another way: proof by playing a game. This video is an explanation of a proof by contradiction after assuming that the infinite set [0,1] is countable and playing a game on that interval. All we need is basic calculus for the limits of sequences!
