- Sorry this is not about your question but i'm watching demon slayer rn and i just noticed Akaza.;(2 votes)
- she said at 0.47 the best way to expand your creativity is to do what you love. i LOVE video games. ok. so i will go expand my creativity by playing video games.(2 votes)
- if the math were really learning is used in the real world so much why are word problems abt 'real scenarios' always the most difficult to solve when in a class...but imma keep learning though because math majors be makin bank so yaeayaaahhh(1 vote)
- For me its time and context: I'm not given a set up of the problem I'm facing and I'm limited to the amount of time that I have to solve it or get scorched by harsh reality until I get it right or degrade for the worst or simply find a way around it or don't deal with it at all and hope the idiot's way out prevails.(1 vote)
Video transcript
(light upbeat music) (keyboard keys clicking) - There are so many ways that you can expand your
creative and math skills without even really realizing
that you're doing it. Like for me, I'm a big board game fan and I realize that there's so
many games that involve math and learning how to solve problems. And sometimes like, just
when you're cooking. I love to bake. And so I feel like I'm
constantly using like fractions and learning how to do proportions, just because I'm doing things that I love. So I feel like the best way to expand your mathematical and creative skills are just doing what you love to do because probably it has
some kind of math in it and some kind of creativity. - Try to connect what you're
learning to your real life. It's really easy to be in the classroom and think that it's siloed and it's orthogonal from
the world around you. The more we can connect what
we're learning in the classroom to our real life, either
via sports or entertainment, politics, news, whatever. The connection that you make
between math and your real life will really help you appreciate the skills and the methods and find
ways to transfer them outside of just the classroom alone. (light upbeat music)
