Don’t Take Math Education For Granted As the United States celebrates its semiquincentennial, let’s not take for granted our ability to count up to 250. In other words, we wouldn’t be where we are now ...

Math exam questions should not try too hard to appear "realistic" by adding everyday-life stories, because students would ...

We studied results from our own thermostats and other research to find how much smart versions save on monthly bills -- and when they pay for themselves.

The tipping point came in the summer of 2025. That July, several artificial intelligence models solved five out of six problems at the International Mathematical Olympiad, an annual challenge for some ...

Do you stare at a math word problem and feel completely stuck? You're not alone. These problems mix reading comprehension with complex math concepts, making them a common hurdle for students. The good ...
