Find x

   WTF!!!
Before you tell kids to find x, can u explain to them why 'x' is used to represent the unknown. If not, why not find a, b, c, d . . .w,y...z. And how come alphabets can be calculated?

I immerse myself in studying something and then at a certain point my brain says “no more!” and it becomes stressful and I don’t seem to be making any progress. So I leave it for a few days (or weeks, or months) and then come back to it when it is no longer stressful (the right time seems to be when I start dreaming about it). Then I may have forgotten many of the surface details but I find it is so much easier to understand and remember the material and I can go further before I reach the “no more!” point again. It is as though my brain is doing a huge amount of reorganizing, unconsciously, during those interstitial times. Traditional learning does not usually give you the opportunity to take breaks when you need them. "        - KAIA " O gosh, that describes me too. I think...
