Conrad Wolfram: Teaching kids real math with computers | Video on TED.com - 2 views
-
From rockets to stock markets, many of humanity's most thrilling creations are powered by math. So why do kids lose interest in it? Conrad Wolfram says the part of math we teach -- calculation by hand -- isn't just tedious, it's mostly irrelevant to real mathematics and the real world. He presents his radical idea: teaching kids math through computer programming.

Very similar to the idea of teaching computer programming via storytelling/animation (Scratch)

I just watched this video and it's actually billed INCORRECTLY on that Ted.com description! The guy is *not* saying to teach math through teaching computer programming at'all!! He is simply advocating to use the power of the computer to teach math - i.e. using programs such as Mathematica. His slide says "Computer-based math: critical reform" -- so, he is saying that students should use the computer for the computing (which is for sure true) and teachers should teach with the students using this computing power asap (which I agree with) ... but he is *not* actually saying to teach computer programming ... p.s. This video is sweeping through the math teacher twitter streams and blogs right now (yes, there is such a community out there!) But, in my opinion, his idea is no big leap ... -
Absolutely agree... the idea presented here is no big leap at all, especially to us who are following these advances pretty closely. I saw the parallels with scratch in terms of engaging the learner.

There are many sides to every story, see them all. HBO invites you to participate in a multi-dimensional storytelling experience that defies expectations and proves a change in perspective changes everything. Will you uncover the truth and see the bigger picture?

Nice find! Just like HBO to try and be at the front of every market.

This was interesting, Heidi! Thanks for sharing. I can't tell how I feel about the idea of "Twitter Fiction," but it is something I'd like to learn more about.
