This past fall we sent my then two, now three year old, to his first year of preschool. It was only two mornings a week, but we felt like it would benefit him to start socializing and learning alongside other kids his own age. He’s our third, but given the eight year age gap and the demanding schedule of his older siblings, he hasn’t been exposed to his peers as much as they did at his age. So over the past year I’ve watched my kids as they have navigated learning in preschool, fourth grade and sixth grade. Some days they are eager to learn, and some days that excitement isn’t quite there. This got me thinking about the mindset of a student and what motivates them to learn. 

Some students are results driven. They want to see that “A” on the top of their test when it’s handed back.…

What motivates students to learn? If you’re a current student, think about the classes or teachers that inspire you to learn. If your schooling days are in the past, think back on the activities or classes you looked forward to attending the most. What is it about those classes that caught your interest? Was it the teachers, the content, the activities? There are many factors that contribute toward our perception of our educational journey, but I believe that one of the most impactful things is how engaged we are or were in our learning.

Enter gamification. Gamification in education is the implementation of elements of gaming into the learning process. It’s tapping into the interests of the students, and using that engagement to foster learning. So, does it work? Does transforming traditional learning into a game-like atmosphere contribute toward higher learning and retention? 

I’ve heard mixed opinions on this topic,…

For high school students passionate about mathematics, summer math camps are more than just an academic escape—they're launchpads for intellectual growth, friendships with like-minded peers, and potential pathways to elite universities or international competitions. Among the many programs available, a few stand out for their prestige, rigor, and transformative impact. Below are the most respected math summer programs in the United States and what makes each unique.

One of the most selective and prestigious programs is the Math Olympiad Summer Program (MOSP). This camp isn’t open through a typical application—it’s invitation-only, based on performance in a sequence of math contests: the AMC 10/12, the AIME, and finally, the USAJMO or USAMO. From there, top scorers are invited to MOSP, where they train intensively for the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO). About 60 students nationwide attend each year. It's entirely free and doesn’t require essays or teacher recommendations—just pure problem-solving excellence. If…
