Equitable access to mathematics is a long-standing, yet unmet goal in mathematics education (Gutiérrez, 2018). There are many well-known obstacles to this goal, one of which is unexamined biases about who does and does not do mathematics (Walker, 2007). The VCAST Project.

Mathematics. But in the 1600s came the idea of modeling things with mathematical formulas—in which time enters, but basically just as a coordinate value. We won’t always be able to make a simple human—or, say, mathematical—narrative to explain or predict what a system will do. These are all ways to formalize the world.

That little girl went on to study math and economics in college, then became a math teacher and a teacher-coach. Today, Joseph is an associate professor in the Department of Teaching and Learning at Vanderbilt University and the director of the Joseph Mathematics Education Research Lab. And I said, “Sure.” Let’s just take Vanderbilt.

There’s a big example of this historically, in mathematics. But then mathematical notation was invented, and math took off—with the development of algebra, calculus, and eventually all the various mathematical sciences. Back before about 500 years ago, pretty much the only way to “express math” was in natural language.

Fast numbers-based ways to do particular computations are often viewed as representing “ exact solutions ” to corresponding mathematical problems. Still, there is in a sense one other kind of computational reducibility that we do know about, and that’s been very widely used in mathematical science: the phenomenon of continuity.

Three centuries ago science was transformed by the idea of representing the world using mathematics. And that’s for example why things like mathematical formulas have been able to be as successful in science as they have. In 2000 I was interested in what the simplest possible axiom system for logic (Boolean algebra) might be.

And—it should be said at the outset—we’re still only at the very beginning of nailing down those technical details and setting up the difficult mathematics and formalism they involve.) Mathematically this can be thought of as being like decomposing the ruliad structure in terms of fibrations and foliations.). Experiencing the Ruliad.

Many would say that modern exact science was launched in the 1600s with the introduction of what we can call the “ mathematical paradigm ”: the idea that things in the world can be described by mathematical equations—and that their behavior can be determined by finding solutions to these equations.

My original goal in A New Kind of Science was to take a step beyond the mathematical paradigm that had defined the state of the art in science for three centuries—and to introduce a new paradigm based on computation and on the exploration of the computational universe of possible programs. But there’s more.

It was all algebra. So what happened is Marvin [Minsky] and I basically fleshed out the idea of a mathematical thing.
