    B Explaining to middle and high schoolers the alternatives to retrocausality

    Yes! It was the polarized light one. Thanks. I'll try to grok this and the Kim paper reference today. Than you! I hope B was the right destination for "high school help needed" on the phone app and can't find the key that tells which is which.

    Comment by 'whitsona2' in media 'Guinness world record "Human Calculator"'

    This seems a lot like the "teach your toddler to read" hugely expensive programs that were based off of a book from the 1970s that cost me $6 on Amazon. It worked. Daughter loved it. Mental math has been out there forever. And, it has some really nice algorithms in it. I wish we taught more...

    The Math Myth on Booktv/C-Span

    I get this general thing from students all the time. So, lately, I've been playing Devils advocate-- ok, we will only give math to those who are likely to need it. Let's see, statistically scientists are still most likely to be white males--so let's start there... wow! This is saving us so...

    B Explaining to middle and high schoolers the alternatives to retrocausality

    I run a maker space and it has taken a dive into physics recently. I have 2 students doing a quantum entanglement experiment from SciAm and the Spooky Action at a Distance website. And, we have done a simple quantum eraser with polarized light. All I can tell them is that "physicists say"...

    B Delayed choice quantum eraser experiment interference pattern question

    Thanks for this-- what is the original paper? I run a maker space for middle and high school kids and two are doing the SciAm quantum entanglement right now and all I can tell them is that some physicists have a model for the eraser that doesn't require retro causality. Need more. Middle...
