Why Math?

Here at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, we believe that math is for all students. Math helps students make sense of the world, solve problems, and make smart informed decisions. In this video, learn more about how an accessible math education is a pathway to improve motivation, engagement, and persistence in the classroom. And why we are excited for the day when all students have the math skills to achieve their dreams.
