Lessons of maths construction

We need to teach young people to apply the positive aspects of maths to construct a better world. We need them to learn that two people pulling together will do more than individuals pulling alone. Aristotle famously and wisely once said that, “The whole is greater than the sum of the parts”, which is a key mathematical and practical life principle. We are called to go forth and multiply, to bring greater returns. That is the fundamental lesson that we need our children to grasp, in theory and in practice. The answer will be infinity!
