At the same time, universities could sometimes do a better job of letting students see why it's important to learn something. A great example is matrix determinant, which at first glance seems like an entirely arbitrary invention. The 3Blue1Brown YouTube channel does a great job with this, introducing the determinant in terms of geometry. It puts the geometric meaning of the function first, introducing the strange looking formula later on. edit And of course, it does all of this with excellent visualisations. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ip3X9LOh2dk |
