As a mathematics education researcher, I study how math instruction impacts students' learning, from following standard math procedures to understanding mathematical concepts. Focusing on the latter, ...

Meta's work made headlines and raised a possibility once considered pure fantasy: that AI could soon outperform the world's best mathematicians by cracking math's marquee "unsolvable" problems en ...

Mathematics education must move beyond marks and memorisation, focusing instead on reasoning, problem-solving, and creative ...

Microsoft has potentially made a breakthrough with small language models (SLMs) after the recent development of a new reasoning technique dubbed rStar-Math. For context, the technique enhances the ...

From writing essays to coding, there’s seemingly nothing modern AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot cannot accomplish. But even though they seem limitless on the surface, they’re certainly ...

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 ...

This course is intended for students who are not ready for or interested in the Pre-calculus/Calculus pathway their senior year but still want to continue developing their mathematical knowledge and ...

When you think back on elementary school math, do you have fond memories of the countless worksheets you completed on adding fractions or solving division problems? Probably not. Researchers and ...

Mathematicians excel at handling complexity and uncertainty. Mathematical reasoning strategies aren't just useful for dilemmas involving numbers. We can apply math mindsets to improve our approach to ...

Conclusions from a new Apple study might make consumers rethink using ChatGPT—and other Generative AI tools—to get financial advice. And it should temper the plans of bank and credit union executives ...
