Is the Universe Entirely Mathematical feat. Max Tegmark

Paul Andersen explains how to use mathematics appropriately. He begins by emphasizing the important role that mathematics plays in the life sciences today and in that the future. He describes important mathematical equations in each of...

Consider the following sentence: "This statement is false." Is that true? If so, that would make the statement false. But if it's false, then the statement is true. This sentence creates an unsolvable paradox; if it's not true and it's...

Paul Andersen explains how mathematics and computational thinking can be used by scientists to represent variables and by engineers to improve design. He starts by explaining how mathematics is at the root of all sciences. He then...

In this video Paul Andersen shows you how to use mathematical and computational thinking in a mini-lesson on mathematical representations. Two examples are included in the video and two additional examples are included in the linked...

You'd have a hard time finding the medieval city K_nigsberg on any modern maps, but one particular quirk in its geography has made it one of the most famous cities in mathematics. Dan Van der Vieren explains how grappling with...

Euclid of Alexandria revolutionized the way that mathematics is written, presented or thought about, and introduced the concept of mathematical proofs. Discover what it takes to move from a loose theory or idea to a universally...

What can mathematics say about history? According to TED Fellow Jean-Baptiste Michel, quite a lot. From changes to language to the deadliness of wars, he shows how digitized history is just starting to reveal deep underlying patterns.

Paul Andersen (with the help of PatricJMT) explains why mathematics may be biology's next microscope.

Have you ever come across an oddly stretched image on the sidewalk, only to find that it looks remarkably realistic if you stand in exactly the right spot? These sidewalk illusions employ a technique called anamorphosis - a special case...

Pascal's triangle, which at first may just look like a neatly arranged stack of numbers, is actually a mathematical treasure trove. But what about it has so intrigued mathematicians the world over? Wajdi Mohamed Ratemi shows how Pascal's...

The tale of mathematics is as old as humanity. It has evolved from simple math, like counting cattle, to an intricate study of an object through abstract concepts that we know today. It was not until 600 BC, when civilizations settled,...

👉 Learn how to evaluate mathematics expressions. A mathematics expression is a finite combination of numbers and symbols formed following a set of operations or rules. To evaluate a mathematics expression means to obtain the solution to...

Özgür Akas is Head of Mathematics Department at Robert College, Istanbul, Turkey.



Recognized globally for her pioneering work in innovation and educational technology, Özgür Akas has 20 years of experience in education as a...

👉 Learn how to apply induction to prove the sum formula for every term. Proof by induction is a mathematical proof technique. It is usually used to prove that a formula written in terms of n holds true for all natural numbers: 1, 2, 3, ....

In this math video we will write a mathematical expression from a verbal description. We will identify parts of the verbal description and translate each part into a mathematical expression. We will understand that you do not need to...

👉 Learn how to apply induction to prove the sum formula for every term. Proof by induction is a mathematical proof technique. It is usually used to prove that a formula written in terms of n holds true for all natural numbers: 1, 2, 3, ....

This program covers the important topic of Mathematical Expectation in Probability and Statistics. We begin by discussing what Mathematical Expectation is and why it is important. Next, we solve several problems that involve the...

AWARDEES ANNOUNCED JULY 2015

On July 1, 2015, President Obama named 107 mathematics and science teachers as recipients of the prestigious Presidential Award for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching. "These teachers are...

Pupil outcome: I can perform a range of mathematical operations on list items and return a result. Key learning points: - Mathematical operations can be performed using operators in Python. - Mathematical operations can be performed on...

Welcome to our new video series called "New Economic Thinking." The series will feature dozens of conversations with leading economists on the most important issues facing economics and the global economy today.
