All the more reason to open the floodgates so we can get the few people with both skillsets.
- sametmax 10y agoYou won't achieve that by encouraging people at doing math, it's not attractive enough. Just like it's hard to sell vegetable to somebody eating chocolate. And I LOOOOVE vegetables. You can, however, achieve this by encouraging nerds to get people skills. Double benefit : - they will have an easier life - nerds will be less stigmatized, linked topics will so be more appealing and math more successful I agree though that putting more kids in contact with math sooner will help a lot. A lot of kids like maths if it's shown to them with passion before they are exposed to the social stereotype or nerdiness.
