Grading for growth in an engineering math class: Part 1

Robert Talbert, Ph.D.

This is a four-credit course primarily intended for students in engineering that combines topics from these two gigantic areas of mathematics. You'll find versions of this course at many universities that offer engineering degrees, and it's clear that many profs who teach it don't quite know what to make of it.

The Story Continues: Announcing Version 14 of Wolfram Language and Mathematica

Stephen Wolfram

And we’ve been steadily doing the engineering to let AIs call on Wolfram Language as easily as possible. So did that mean we were “finished” with calculus? Somewhere along the way we built out discrete calculus , asymptotic expansions and integral transforms. And in Version 14 there are significant advances around calculus.

ChatGPT Gets Its “Wolfram Superpowers”!

Stephen Wolfram

Thanks to some heroic software engineering by our team and by OpenAI , ChatGPT can now call on Wolfram|Alpha—and Wolfram Language as well—to give it what we might think of as “computational superpowers”. And in the end, as we’ll discuss later, that’s a more flexible and powerful way to communicate. But what about from the ChatGPT side?

How Did We Get Here? The Tangled History of the Second Law of Thermodynamics

Stephen Wolfram

And indeed particularly in chemistry and engineering it’s often been in the background, justifying all the computations routinely done using entropy. There had been precursors of steam engines even in antiquity, but it was only in 1712 that the first practical steam engine was developed.
