Conquering 7 Challenges of Math Education

Math matters, both to our world generally, and to the individual future success of your students. That’s why, as educators, you strive endlessly to help your students understand and work with math. It’s important and rewarding work, but it’s also a challenging task that becomes especially difficult when class sizes grow, distractions multiply, and the effects of learning loss continue to be felt. Fortunately, the right technology can act as your assistant, providing a greater return on the investment of time and energy you put into teaching, and helping you help your students succeed.

In this whitepaper, we will examine seven extremely common challenges faced by instructors who teach math and courses that make use of math, such as engineering, physics, chemistry, business, and economics. For each challenge, we will show examples of how the Maplesoft Mathematics Suite, a collection of software solutions from Maplesoft, can provide enlightening visualizations, instant feedback, motivating examples, hands-on explorations, and other supports that can help you conquer that challenge. To illustrate these examples, we provide screenshots and short video clips taken using a variety of products from the Suite.
