Od raketa do dionica, mnoge ljudske najuzbudljivije tvorevine su postignute uz pomoć matematike.Pa, zašto onda djeca gube interes za njom? Conrad Wolfram govori kako je dio matematike koji mi poučavamo -- ručno računanje -- nije samo dosadan, nego većinom nebitan za stvarnu matematiku i stvarni svijet. On predstavlja svoju radikalnu ideju: učiti djecu matematiku kroz računalno programiranje.

Conrad Wolfram: Učenje djece stvarne matematike s računalima

Math education today devotes 80 percent of its time to hand calculation, even though computers now excel at this task. Students lose interest because math in school feels disconnected from real-life problem-solving, while the world becomes ever more mathematical. Using computers frees up classroom time for critical thinking, problem formulation, and real-world application. One vivid example: globally, people spend the equivalent of 106 entire lifetimes each day teaching hand calculations with little practical benefit.
