Importance of mathematical education

Joseph Smith

Our world is rapidly changing as a result of informatization, automation, digitization, and globalization. Mathematics education should strive for excellence in order to educate pupils for a digital and changing world. Moore's Law asserts that the number of devices in a computer chip doubles every two years, resulting in cheaper and more powerful computers. Microchip density, like processor speed, memory capacity, fuel efficiency, and bandwidth, grows at an exponential rate. As a result, literacy will become increasingly important. Such shifts need a shift away from skills that compete with computer capabilities and toward forward-thinking skills that complement them.
