Riddle Me This: Using Sudoku to Improve Your Problem Solving Skills
Sunday, October 22nd, 2:30 pm CT via Zoom
Sudoku is used as a pastime by approximately 10% of American adults, but its potential lies beyond that of casual diversion.
In Sudoku there is no luck that dice and cards impart; it is immune to influences of politics, religion, language, culture, or nationalities. It is entirely objective, with no subjectivity. To be successful in solving this puzzle one must apply basic algorithms common to all logical processes; 100% accuracy is required.
Logic is what makes us all Mensans and is the foundation of all STEM subjects and the keystone of problem solving and creative solutions.
What if Sudoku was used as a tool in every elementary and middle school to teach children how to think, how to use logic to solve problems? Since teams teach valuable social skills and children prefer to work together in teams, what if Sudoku tournaments were held similar to mathlete competitions?
In this Theodore Talk you will learn from Jerry Martin, a Lifetime Member and founder of Sudoku as a Teaching Tool, through online audience participation, Sudoku’s benefits in developing logical, intrapersonal, and interpersonal intelligences.
In other words, be a better Mensan!
