Ways To Teach Math Concepts To Children

Fasten your seat belts for the global economy. Unfortunately this brave new world poses a serious and formidable challenge to the United States. The problem is that our children are just not showing much interest or skills in the areas of math, engineering, science, or technology. As the workers of the baby boomer generation start to retire, we not only need to fill these jobs, but instruct our young people to compete for the global jobs of the future. Could the media of the math comic book be part of the solution to the problem?

As we enter this brave new age, we need brand new tools. Not just the internet, but other ways to teach mathematics and science to our kids. Kids need to be shown that math can be very practical to the hobbies and interests that they have at such a young age. For example, math is very important in calculating the statistics of their favorite sports star. Mathematics principles are also at heart in the world of music. If our children learn that mathematics is not only practical, but very fun, they will be more likely to choose a career in it in when they get older.

How about math comics? Could this be considered to be a “media” tool? Perhaps in some ways. While it’s true that math comic strips have been around for years and years, they have mostly been used to entertain, not educate. We’ve all read a comic about a hero, or a talking mouse, or young love. How many times have we read a comic that taught us mathematics? I don’t remember ever doing this as a child. Since kids love to read comics, if we can use this format to educate them science and math, we will all win. They will be educated and entertained, and we will help set our kids on a course that is wonderful for the nation’s future.
