can Larry Summers get his job back at Harvard?

This article is pure Bullshi*t. The reason math is hard to follow is that for some reason corporations seem to think they need to hide their methods and techniques. Math really means how do we represent visual information. If you take a Math System Commodore 64 because you have 400+ books available would qualify for a study or Atari 800 with 100 books available. or Acorn with 120 books available. or TRS-80 with about 240 books available. One thing you notice is nobody writes the same. Read Richard Dawkins the Selfish Gene which was written write before the TRS-80 Basic was released. People have to learn to translate and stop accepting that AAAwesome and cool are not swear words. There is not a standard either in Mathematica or Maple.

What has John Hopkins students done with Mathematica? or Maple? What could they do on a C64 emulator? By the way I am a retarded student and my vocabulary is much further ahead then average people but my dexterity is much lower. Most people get lost with my conversations about math which show progress. It has nothing to do with people, technological books or teachers but really with TV script writing and Journalism formats and bombastic religious conversation. I swear talking to my garbage disposal is a deeper conversation then talking with religious Christian people.

This article is bad science because it makes no reference to the significance of stereopsis of vision. Children develop stereopsis of vision for 0 to 9 years of age, during that time they develop their maths skills. Girls development is ahead of boys, so at this early age boys should be more adept mathematically than boys. For many reasons children hit blockages to their development of full cognitive vision, for most children this is entirely correctable through Behavioural Optometry - I have not yet met a student that cannot improve their Maths skills by improving their cognitive visual skills. The brain is plastic; the muscles around the eyes can all be manipulated; therefore Maths skills are not necessarily inborn it depends on how alert the parents, teachers and optometrists are to the developmental needs of the child.

I also wonder about this. (I am a research meteorologist, and reasonably good with numbers). In my own schooling, I was a relatively mediocre performer until the 3'rd grade, when an alert teacher noticed I couldn't see the writing on the blackboard. She alerted my parents, I was then fitted with glasses, and I went from a "C" to an "A" almost immediately, and the rest is history. I wonder how many of those children in the test had their vision checked first to eliminate that as a cause of poor performance.

Anyone who's worked with children can tell you that some of them are gifted beyond their peers in certain areas. Two of my children could talk amazingly early, and (surprise!) as adults they are great at public speaking, with no training and little experience. Myself, when I was a child I could easily do my brother's math several grade levels above my own, because it seemed to me to be obvious extensions of what I already knew. If I got stuck, my brother only had to show me once. That's not normal. (Why do you think we have grade levels?) I became a physicist. Is anyone surprised? Other children are unusually athletic, or musical, or empathetic, or imaginative, or energetic, or daring, etc., etc., etc. Find the right tests, and you'll prove these are innate characteristics, with a wide range of innate ability. This only upsets people because of our prejudice towards certain abilities (the ones that make money).
