What links a Möbius strip, brain folds and termite mounds? The answer is Harvard University’s L. Mahadevan, whose career has been devoted to using mathematics and physics to explore the form and function of common phenomena. Mahadevan, or Maha to his friends and colleagues, has long been fascinated by questions one wouldn’t normally ask — from the equilibrium shape of inert objects like a Möbius strip, to the complex factors that drive biological systems like morphogenesis or social insect colonies. In this episode of The Joy of Why, Mahadevan tells co-host Steven Strogatz what ...

Inventare la Matematica - Storie di matematiche e matematiciLa serie, prodotta dal Laboratorio FDS del Dipartimento di Matematica in collaborazione con METID - Politecnico di Milano, ha come obiettivo la divulgazione della matematica - senza formule - attraverso le biografie di alcuni dei suoi protagonisti, non tutti noti al grande pubblico. Le prime 4 puntate sono dedicate a quattro grandi matematiche, tutte vissute prima che la carriera accademica fosse aperta alle donne. Ogni puntata ne presenta i tratti essenziali e ne approfondisce in modo semplice, in forma di dialogo con un esperto, ...

Send us a textIt’s time for another round of Summer Hot Seats!You may have heard talk about math anxiety and helping students to build confidence in math skills. But our guests today want to focus on the idea of math identity. What is it? And how do we foster it? So for this Hot Seat debate, we have two educators here to share why they think:Teachers MUST cultivate a positive math identity.Brian mentioned the book: The Impact of Identity in K-8 MathematicsYou can find Rolanda Baldwin on LinkedIn, as well as on X: @RoKnowsMath Follow Brian Dean on LinkedIn.Find out more about Unbound Ed: ...

You want to do PBL, but every time you think about it… you panic. What if it flops? What if it’s chaos? Been there. Done that. In this episode, I’m sharing how I went from panicked to confidently using project-based learning in my classroom—without the mess.Inside this episode: ✔ Why PBL feels chaotic (and why it doesn’t have to be) ✔ The biggest mistake teachers make when starting project-based learning ✔ How project milestones create structure and boost learning💡 Try This: Sketch out your next project. Add 2-3 mini-deadlines. Ask: What should students know or show by ...

What If the Real Problem… Is Math Itself? As a substitute teacher, homeschooling parent, and unapologetic cultural critic, Theo Rhising takes a blowtorch to the sacred cow of compulsory math—revealing how this outdated rite of passage crushes curiosity, squanders youth, and props up a system more concerned with compliance than critical thinking. Why are teens still forced through years of abstract math they'll never use—trig, calculus, polynomials—while graduating clueless about taxes, budgeting, or building a life that actually works? Why is math treated as sacred when, for most, ...

Generative Artificial Intelligence (Generative AI) is not just a frontier of technology—it's a paradigm shift in how we think about creativity, automation, and intelligence itself. When I first encountered the idea that a machine could write poetry, compose music, or even generate original research, it felt like science fiction. Today, it's an undeniable reality, transforming industries and inspiring new forms of human expression. This book is the culmination of my academic journey, research, and reflective exploration into this fascinating and sometimes controversial domain. I have ...

At first glance, the concept of equality in maths seems unambiguous. When we see the equality sign, we think of 'solving for x' or balancing two sides of an equation or maybe even the many famous equations that make use of this elegant, innocuous symbol: =. But between those parallel lines lies a mathematical playground of choice and abstraction, leading to far greater insight than you could have dreamed.
