Conrad Wolfram: “If we teach as if computers didn’t exist, we are failing”
The expert advocates for a radical change in math education: less manual calculation, more computational thinking, and real-world connection.
Jose M. Carmena is the Chancellor’s Professor of Electrical Engineering and Neuroscience at the University of California-Berkeley, and Co-Director of the Center for Neural Engineering and Prostheses at UC Berkeley and UCSF. His research program in neural engineering and systems neuroscience is aimed at understanding the neural basis of sensorimotor learning and control, and at building the science and engineering base that will allow the creation of reliable neuroprosthetic systems for the severely disabled. Carmena is also founder at iota Biosciences, dedicated to transforming how doctors monitor and treat disease by advancing our understanding of how bioelectronics interact with the human nervous system.
