The Student Cognition Toolbox (SCT) is a short course companion (or “sidecar”) introducing and providing direct practice in study strategies that are informed by learning science research. In this version of the SCT, material from introductory statistics is used to illustrate the application of the study strategies. This version gives examples and recommendations specifically for students studying Introductory Statistics.
Math for independent learners.

An introductory logic course, designed for students from a broad range of disciplines, from mathematics and computer science to drama and creative writing. It is also designed to reflect aspects of the logical tradition (going back to Aristotle) as well as the practical applicability (for example for the construction of Boolean circuits). Below one finds a detailed description of the course with many of its special features.

Digital Math is the unification of math and programming. You get a deeper understanding of algorithms rather than learning special cases by heart. This makes math useful and valuable for society and for you in your daily and professional life. You begin by understanding the math of the world around you, and step by step you create your own virtual world, by making physics simulations. Physics simulations are widely used in science and industry, such as aerodynamics, medicine and textile. By learning a few basic algorithms, anyone can carry out such simulations. Try the technology behind DigiMat. DigiMat Pro is offered through a collaboration with KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden.
