Today I am going to be sharing my learning with the "You Cubed maths course" this maths course is run by some students at the Stanford university and it is all about the way our brain works and the myths and facts about maths. We spent about an hour per week on this course and each lesson takes about 0.5 -1 hour/s. I have really enjoyed this and will explain each lesson in more depth next
Lesson 1: Knocking down the myths about maths
This lesson talks about success and how you don't have to be "smart" to be good at maths.
Lesson 2: Maths and mindset
This lesson is all about how your brain grows when you make mistakes.
Lesson 3: Mistakes and speed
This lesson is all about struggling and overcoming problems you may face well doing maths
Lesson 4: Number flexibility, mathematical reasoning and calculations
This lesson is where you learn about making connection between different maths problems
Lesson 5: Number Patterns and representations
This lesson is where you learn about patterns and how they relate to maths
Lesson 6: Maths in life nature and work
This lesson is about maths and how it relates to our every day lives.
Overall I have learnt a lot. One of the main things that I learnt is the fact that you don't have to be "smart" to be good at maths. Another thing is that there are patterns all through maths. Both of these things I will take from this course and apply to my own maths.
