Savage teach award - Dr. Jarvis

This talk is inspiring. It is surprising to me how much role hard work plays in doing well in Mathematics. The study those psychologist have done really reflect that out brain can be developed according to how we train it, by doing more problems, allowing out brain to think, just like how we exercise our body and get better on it.


It is also interesting that Dr. Jarvis pointed out that Asians do well in Math greatly due to their determination in working out the problem. That they spent more time in the problem then American thus causing them a better performance.

I like the quote he posted: "learning is a struggle." that we must struggle if we want to learn. That we must go for the challenging problems if we to improve.
