In this episode of The Talking Cure: Conversations with Jedediah Wheeler, Mathematics professor Mika Munakata and the Chair of the Mathematics Department at Montclair State University, Ashwin Vaidya, discussed their research paper 'Inspiring Mathematical Creativity through Juggling'. An exciting collaboration with the brilliant juggler and director Sean Gandini and the Office of Arts + Cultural Programming explores the connection between science and juggling. The work seeks to encourage students' creative thinking, including non-STEM majors, to see mathematics in unexpected places, make connections to their own interests and disciplines, and explore creativity in mathematics.
