But the U.S continues to trail the world in math and science. And also the number of U.S students pursuing a STEM career or educating is decreasing as mentioned in [1] – [3]. A change in the way math is taught and presented in the classroom is urgently needed. Instructors need to be able to engage the students in learning by communicating that the study of mathematics and its objective is not to study math for math sake but to be able to apply it as a tool to solve the world’s complex and essential problems.
