In Mysterious Pattern, Math and Nature Converge All complex correlated systems, from Arctic melt ponds to the internet, appear to be governed by the same math as a random matrix. Photo: Marco de ...

The New Math of Wrinkling Patterns A comprehensive mathematical framework treats these crinkles as elegant solutions to geometric problems.

Why do humans love to look at patterns? I can only guess, but I’ve written a whole book about new mathematical ways to make them. In Creating Symmetry, The Artful Mathematics of Wallpaper ...

Patterns were mostly left out of the common-core math standards in the early grades (kindergarten and 1st grade) due to a lack of evidence that they helped children understand later math concepts.

Previous studies have indicated that students enrolled in the general math track do not take as much math and do not learn as much math as students in college-preparatory math courses (Gamoran, 1987; ...
