Episode description

Stephen Wolfram answers audience questions about education and careers as part of an unscripted livestream series.

Questions include: Does the increased use of computational languages make us forget the basics of math? - How do you recommend students with a solid calculus background to learn physics and mathematics? - Why do many old technical institutions use manual calculation rather than modern computational tools? - What book behind you has had the most impact on you and your peers? - How can one improve their mathematical and scientific thinking? - Do you have a suggestion for someone who finds math fascinating but has difficulty with homework and tests? - How can someone be good at one kind of math/programming and bad at another?
