Best Open Access Journals and Scholarly Articles for Research Students

Educators Technology

Unfortunately, a sizeable portion of this academic scholarship is locked behind paywalls thus restricting its access to those who can afford to pay. Several researchers and students are unable to afford the high costs required for access thus crippling their efforts to participate in the generation of quality knowledge.

The Math Revolution You Haven’t Heard About

ED Surge

Around the country, “ math wars ” are raging over attempts to increase equity by playing down calculus from the curriculum in favor of statistics or computer science, or by delaying when students take algebra. Kelly has taught a similar modeling course for economics and social sciences for the last few years.)

Can AI Solve Science?

Stephen Wolfram

But that certainly doesn’t mean AI can’t importantly help the progress of science. At a very practical level, for example, LLMs provide a new kind of linguistic interface to the computational capabilities that we’ve spent so long building in the Wolfram Language. The system is doing a computation to determine its behavior.

How is mathematics applied to real world problems?

Futurum

Mathematical modelling — the ability to translate observations (experimental or otherwise) using mathematical theories and laws of physics to represent important features from a real-world problem. This variable is independent of space and time, and, in many cases, denotes the physical units associated with the dynamical system.

Creating software that works for everyone

Futurum

However, as we become ever-more reliant on software, ensuring it is accessible for all of society is a growing necessity. ACCESSIBLE — can be obtained easily and used by everyone. APP — a computer program used to perform a specific function (e.g., USER INTERFACE — the place where an end user interacts with a computer (e.g.,

Imaging the invisible: how can research software and imaging techniques help scientists study the things we can’t see?

Futurum

Scientific simulations — an advanced type of computational model that not only represents a real-world phenomenon, but aims to predict how the phenomenon might change under different conditions or parameters. Software — a set of instructions, scripts or programmes that are used to operate computers and perform specific tasks.
