Kathy has a strong logical capability that would obviously be quite helpful in teaching math, since she can understand mathematical concepts clearly, and have a far-sighted view as to where the student's foundational math skills may lead them in the future. In teaching language, she can also use seq...

Modern science is accustomed to patting itself on the back, often thinking that it has all of the answers for life's various conundrums, in comparison to the ancients who thought that the universe revolved around the earth, not the sun. Yet it was only in 1995 did a mathematician named Andrew Wiles,...

A Troubled SystemStudents begin the study of algebra. The numbers of those who do not understand are gradually reduced. They struggle at first, and eventually most begin to understand. Or do they? Studies would suggest otherwise. A great amount of research has been done in the past decade in an a...
