This placed the responsibility for learning on the students, using teacher-prescribed methods, even though decades of research screamed that lots of kids perform better with images than pages filled with black-and-white text. Topics include languages, music, technology, social studies, science, engineering, maths, journalism, and more.

There are learning activities centered on nature, science, and adventure. There’s also a memorable field trip for each session, with visits to the California Academy of Sciences and Muir Woods. Through the club, they provide schools and organizations with the materials and training to teach students about science.

In the early 1990s, I was doing my doctoral research in Lesotho, Southern Africa. The liberal arts consist of the natural sciences, like biology, ecology and neuroscience, formal sciences, like physics and maths, social sciences, and the humanities.

This is the first of a series of pieces I’m planning in connection with the upcoming 20th anniversary of the publication of A New Kind of Science. “There’s a Whole New Field to Build…” For me the story began nearly 50 years ago —with what I saw as a great and fundamental mystery of science. How is it made?

Science teachers, in particular, continuously face this challenge as their field grows and changes. Local science centers and zoos often can offer assistance. For STEM teachers, keeping up with constant breakthroughs in their areas of expertise and translating those breakthroughs into classroom lessons can be daunting.

Further research into elementary particles could yield explanations for black holes, gravity, and other unsolved mysteries currently present in the scientific world. Scientists theorize that neutrinos may have played a role in this difference and continue to research their hidden impacts on the universe.

And indeed particularly in chemistry and engineering it’s often been in the background, justifying all the computations routinely done using entropy. But by the mid-1600s the idea was emerging that there could be more explicit and mechanical explanations for phenomena in the natural world.

Statistical Mechanics and Simple Programs Back in 1973 I never really managed to do much science on the very first computer I used. In January I’d been asked to write an article for the then-top popular science magazine Scientific American on the subject of “ Computers in Science and Mathematics ”. I wrote about SMP.
