Yes, that's you - you're the explorer.
"Explorer?"
[ From the Preface: Games & Puzzles, Discovering the Art of Mathematics by V. Ecke and C. von Renesse with J. F. Fleron and P. K. Hotchkiss, 2015 ]
In 2008, the National Academy of Engineering (NAE) made Advance Personalized Learning as one of the fourteen grand challenges for engineering in the 21st century. Since then we have witnessed the emergence of amazing technologies for learning such as mobile tech, MOOC, flipped classroom, social learning networks, Youtube, gamification, .... Everyone learns mathematics differently. Can a math teacher cater to the different learning style of each and every student?
Perhaps, we can start by teaching children, K12 students and even adults to see mathematics as not just arithmetic or algebra. Mathematical skills and knowledge can be shaped through playing. This is the journey to explore the less trodden paths of personalized learning through innovations in computer science.
