Research shows that the way math is taught in schools and how its conceptualized as a subject is severely impairing American student’s ability to learn and understand the material.
Mistakes are part of learning, not a failure of character.
Surrounding counties boast even higher increases.
A majority both disapproves of him and think’s he’ll win next year. What gives?
If you understand gravity well enough, you might not even need a telescope to revolutionize astronomy. In science, advances arise at the intersection of theory and real-world observation. One of […]
Some have suggested that there is no hidden giant out there.
A fascinating mathematical structure exists that goes well beyond our common experience. Could it revolutionize physics? Perhaps the most remarkable fact about the Universe is that every particle within it — at […]
New experiments look to the interplay between neutrons and magnetic fields to observe our universal reflection.
Depending on the answer, one of the famous unsolved Millennium problems could have major implications in our lives.
If you’re wondering whether the blast wave or the radiation would kill us first, you’re asking the wrong question. As far as raw explosive power goes, no other cataclysm in […]
Even extremely simple configurations in General Relativity cannot be solved exactly. Here’s the science of why. It’s difficult to appreciate how revolutionary of a transformation it is to consider the Universe […]
If you’re careful enough, you can learn more about the Solar System than you ever imagined. This year, on March 20th, the full Moon will illuminate the night sky. With […]
There are a few different theories out there, but the parieto-frontal integration theory, or P-FIT, appears to give us the best model of the neuroscience of intelligence.
Eight-dimensional octonions may hold the clues to solve fundamental mysteries.
The answer is surprisingly simple, if cataclysmic.
A 2019 ranking of all 50 states’ education systems shows the Sunshine State serves its college students well.
“History matters, and we now know that hysteresis is part of the answer,” wrote the author of a recent study.
Study looks at who/what they prefer learning from
Almost all experts agree that coding will become nearly as ubiquitous as literacy in the future. But the nature of coding in the future may be very different.
Three scientists publish a paper proving that Mercury, not Venus, is the closest planet to Earth.

A new study finds that simply growing up in a home with enough books increases adult literacy and math prowess.
The quest for a quantum theory of gravity is the holy grail of physics. Here’s why it’s murkier than anyone expected. If you want to fully describe how the Universe […]
The closer together we get, the argument goes, the healthier we’ll be.
The shape of our Universe has long been recognized to be flat. But that isn’t the only possibility. The Universe is expanding, and goes on for farther than even our […]
Lauren Miranda sent a nude selfie to a boyfriend years ago. Somehow one of her students discovered it.
If the only advice you’ve heard on public speaking is to imagine the audience in their underwear, this article’s for you.
