What if, rather than asking students simplistic questions like "How much fence would you need for this garden" we asked messy, real-world problems like "From imaging blood, how accurately can we detect leukemia?" #TheMathsFix Conference

We don't teach PowerPoint in MBA programs-we assume they'll learn how to do that themselves-so why do we spend so much time teaching coding in data science programs? -@Scriffignano1 #TheMathsFix Conference

I want students to play with numbers, trying things just to see what will happen and getting used to getting things wrong! -#MartinaWicklein #TheMathsFix Conference

"Our populations (including many of our leaders and experts) are almost completely bereft of understanding of this world of computation. As bereft as most of the population were of knowledge, before universal literacy. - @conradwolfram #TheMathsFix Conference
