Teaching kids real math with computers/calculators
From rockets to stock markets, many of humanity's most thrilling creations are powered by math. So why do kids lose interest in it? Conrad Wolfram says the part of math we teach -- calculation by hand -- isn't just tedious, it's mostly irrelevant to real mathematics and the real world. He presents his radical idea: teaching kids math through computer programming.

This talk was presented at an official TED conference, by Conrad Wolfram brother of the creator of MATHEMATICA Stephen Wolfram
