We hear all the time about project-based learning. But how does it really work? Of all the tools humans have ever created to help describe and understand our world, few are more useful than ...

The GSMM Camp is a weeklong workshop directed towards interdisciplinary problem solving whose aim is graduate student education and career development. The GSMM Camp is designed to promote a broad ...

A network is a mathematical model used to represent relationships through connections, and this framework can be used to represent many real-world systems, such as the brain. There are multiple ways ...

“It’s challenging to work with real people and real data on real problems in real time,” Adriana Salerno told one of her classes, in person, a seeming lifetime ago, back in February. Salerno, ...

Every so often, the Pentagon's blue sky research arm gets slammed, for funding investigations that are a little too down-to-Earth. Then Darpa turns around, and sponsors a new project to "develop a ...

University researchers are exploring a new way to use large language models (LLMs) for middle school math education. Researchers at George Mason University and William and Mary University have created ...

The sport of jai alai might not have a wide following, but its complex scoring system “has interesting mathematical properties that just beg the techno-geek to try to exploit it,” writes Steven Skiena ...

Suzie Boss is a PBL advocate and author who has collaborated with teachers around the world to design engaging projects: When I facilitate workshops with teachers about project-based learning, one ...
