Reducing Math Anxiety: Research and Strategies

Why does simple math make so many of us uncomfortable? Barnard College President Sian Leah Beilock, along with other scientists, has studied the root of "math anxiety" and strategies to reduce it. According to the research, math anxiety often develops at a young age, even before children start school. Beilock and her team documented the positive impact of an app called Bedtime Math and how making math more fun can be part of the solution.
