How To Make Someone Not Hate Math

ED Surge

A respected math teacher at a K-12 public charter school in Apple Valley, California, Holifield was in steep physical decline. It’s important to ensure messages or opportunities to engage in math are equal for everyone they teach, she says. But a case of “senioritis” caused her to drop out of high school calculus.

How far has education really come in terms of reducing inequities?

CSTEM

For instance, only 38% of schools serving predominantly Black and Latinx students offer calculus, compared to 50% of all high schools. Similarly, while 60% of schools provide physics courses, this drops to 51% in schools with predominantly Black and Latinx students. Economic disparities are just as stark. Changing placement policies.

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

Stephen Wolfram

But by the end of the 1800s, with the existence of molecules increasingly firmly established, the Second Law began to often be treated as an almost-mathematically-proven necessary law of physics. The theory of heat will hereafter form one of the most important branches of general physics. physics) in Glasgow—began to be curious about.

The Concept of the Ruliad

Stephen Wolfram

It’s yet another surprising construct that’s arisen from our Physics Project. In the language of our Physics Project, it’s the ultimate limit of all rulial multiway systems. And here is a rulial multiway system made from hypergraph rewriting of the kind used in our Physics Project , using all rules with signature : &#10005.

Games and Puzzles as Multicomputational Systems

Stephen Wolfram

Multicomputation is one of the core ideas of the Wolfram Physics Project —and in particular is at the heart of our emerging understanding of quantum mechanics. It’s worth mentioning that the possibility of relating games and puzzles to physics is basically something that wouldn’t make sense without our Physics Project.
