The Human Calculator

I was privileged to meet Scott Flansburg aka the Human Calculator this week in Sydney.

I was not only impressed by his mathematical abilities but also his skill at communicating his concepts to audiences, whether they were students, teachers or our group of skilful programmers.

Scott has also announced that he is joining 3P Learning’s World Maths Day Education Team putting out a challenge to students around the world to unite to beat last year’s record of correctly answering 182,445,169 questions in one day.

The World Maths Day site opens for registrations on 15 February for practice and World Maths Day is on Wednesday 4 March. bbbb
