Fun, friendly, math?


A new museum opened in New York recently with an inspired new approach to increasing student interest in math and science. Mo Math (the Museum of Math) presents math and science concepts in a way that draws in students and peaks curiosity in these often feared topics. Check it out at http://momath.org or through the eyes of Mo Rocca.

If this doesn't get you excited to enter the fun world of math, perhaps the works of Cristobal Vila will bring you in. The website Eterea features his work centered around several topics, but I highly suggest the film Nature by Numbers, it models the Fibonacci Sequence in a truly engaging way.

Enjoy!
