Thanks for posting erhuve!

Sadly, a third of American adults do not understand fractions. A big part of this isn't just the particulars of the educational system -- it is also caused by the way we conceive of and teach mathematics as disembodied, symbolic manipulation.

James Algebra (by Jeffrey James and William Bricken, one of the O.G. researchers in virtual reality) is an 'iconic' notation for K-12 mathematics -- it makes numbers look like what they mean.

I'm working on a mobile puzzle game to publicize this. Check out my WIP at https://house.valeriekim.ca -- though I need to get it to a self-demoing state.
