Have you ever noticed that your DoorDash delivery time keeps changing while your order is already on the way?

It’s not a glitch. The system is constantly adjusting as things shift.

Before #MathModeling was taught in classrooms, people were already using that kind of thinking to solve high-stakes real-world problems.

Our latest Year of Math post looks at how World War II helped shape modern math modeling.

Starting a math modeling team doesn’t require a long history. At Indiana University South Bend, it started with one professor looking for something more, and quickly turned into something bigger.

Here’s what they learned: https://t.co/JmaU9Xu2hr

You can have all the data in the world… but without a model, it doesn’t mean much.

Math modeling is what makes data science work. Here’s how it all fits together:

Math isn’t always settled. This piece from @QuantaMagazine looks at a proposed new axiom and why mathematicians are debating whether it should be accepted.

A good reminder that math is about assumptions, definitions, and reasoning...
