Stacie Johnson Leader of Professional Development at Khan Academy Johnsrud: The World Economic Forum this past year reported that creative thinking is the number-one skill needed across industries globally in the next five years. EdSurge: Some people feel that being creative means being artistic and, therefore, claim to be “not creative.”

For instance, only 38% of schools serving predominantly Black and Latinx students offer calculus, compared to 50% of all high schools. Economic disparities are just as stark. Moreover, categorizing students by race, gender, or economic status can be detrimental.

Elementary algebra is crucial for the study of engineering, science, medicine, and economics. Calculus calculates the immediate rates of change and is used for infinite series, derivatives, limits, integrals, and functions. Additionally, calculus comes in handy for the summation of small factors used to determine the whole number.

Children between 6th and 12th grades can easily find an appropriate course in algebra, geometry, algebra 2, and pre-calculus. There are courses on everything a child could want to learn about, including science, economics, computing, and so much more. What makes School Yourself unique is the way that the application works.

It’s a new paradigm—that actually seems to unlock things not only in fundamental physics, but also in the foundations of mathematics and computer science , and possibly in areas like biology and economics too. You know, I talked about building up the universe by repeatedly applying a computational rule. But how is that rule picked?

Meanwhile I started thinking about the relationship of methods from the Physics Project to distributed computing, and to economics. Talking of “societies of observers” brings me to another area I want to study: economics. How does a coherent economic system emerge from all the microscopic transactions and other events in a society?

But then mathematical notation was invented, and math took off—with the development of algebra, calculus, and eventually all the various mathematical sciences.

There was one major exception, however, in 1738, when—as part of his eclectic mathematical career spanning probability theory, elasticity theory, biostatistics, economics and more— Daniel Bernoulli (1700–1782) published his book on hydrodynamics. Nevertheless, every insurance company places its faith in the calculus of probabilities.

The global structures of metamathematics , economics , linguistics and evolutionary biology seem likely to provide examples—and in each case we can expect that at the core is the ruliad, with its unique structure.

But it really wasn’t physics, or computer science, or math, or biology, or economics, or any known field.

That little girl went on to study math and economics in college, then became a math teacher and a teacher-coach. So I was able to take algebra, for example, in eighth grade, which put me on the trajectory to make it all the way to statistics past calculus once I got in high school. She was teaching a calculus class.

It didn’t help that his knowledge of physics was at best spotty (and, for example, I don’t think he ever really learned calculus). But suffice it say to that Ed’s old nemesis—calculus—comes in very handy. It’s actually a nice application for calculus. The details are a bit complicated—and I’ve put them in an appendix below.

My argument is that computer science was originally invented to be taught to everyone, but not for economic advantage. He argued that you can’t think about integral calculus the same after you learn about computational iteration. He described efforts at Carnegie Tech to build economics models and learn through simulating them.
