W. True diversity. Where the world of science is at home in many languages. On a Football Program be going there it would be show you that you know what that our innovations magazine for any. Of us from every week and look into the future on t w dot com science and research. Welcome to tomorrow today this week were looking at the power of music youll see how it can make Learning Math easier. And how helpful it is in treating elderly patients with dementia. As an encore the secret lives of fireflies why did
they clone. Welcome to the show. Algebra arithmetic geometry mathematics are often seen as too dry and theoretical critics complain that School Children learn to solve problems but rarely ever acquire a grasp of underlying mathematical principles what do you think are they right we asked on twitter. How do you remember your math classes forty one percent of you love them more than expected. Thirty seven percent said they could take it or leave it. Well around one in five of you hated math class with a vengeance. Adding music to the mix might have changed a few minds this project shows how. Much money i know my. Student your honeyboy and she has written some math songs
that have become internet hits. Became an help in understanding the pythagorean theorem. To say. No. Big. Deal. Our knowledge of music is magical for Learning Math music teacher marcus love a check wants to take the You Tube Concept and bring it into the classroom he calls it the musical way to learn math. Moves you commit if you bring music into the lessons of other subjects it works magically the subjects automatically grow more interesting explaining becomes easier the child gets the opportunity to actually do something ok. Math and to muse are siblings Rhythm Chords and harmonics all work according to
mathematical principles if the math behind the music is correct then we perceive that music as beautiful. Thats also true for complex music pieces like this japanese song it has special rhythms that work well as an experiment during math lessons whole whole whole. When its all right lets try it all together ready home. While singing to students and this was classroom are supposed to visualize what they hear that means they should interpret and write down on paper the laws and rules of the tones in beats they hear they dont write musical notes they use pictures and symbols experts call with the students are doing mathematics zeeshan
what they want to see it or has the Mathematics Zation means translating and every day situation into a generally abstract language up struck extracting an actual situation and trying to recognize the laws behind it and its masticate its a kind. Of that this is the color represents a pause and the x. s represent the notes and. You can assume that over the standard thats a great i think the top is like a key and thats also a try. Rick you can use. You can invent some characters and then say blue is pink is high this red is a pause. Green is even higher. In this exercise the goal is to find a new way to think about math by using music but concerts divided into two groups
half of the classes clapping their hands in a Circle Counting from one to thirty all multiples of three are substituted with the word pain then they move to multiples of. The other half of the class is at the blackboard they listen to the group in the circle and try to recognize the pattern. Also. Notice immediately that the pattern has to have a certain amount of regularity but if you follow the game and your multiples of three exercise its easier because you always see the same person but with the multiples of four there are always different. I thought the experiment was good. Its good that you can combine math and music on the one hand you have to collapse the rhythm properly and on the other you have to think about the multiples. Perhaps there will soon be a subject called math and you sick until then students can learn arithmetic with
the help of songs written by johann boyish. Music can sound like this. Or like this what different styles have in common is an ability to touch us and the power to heal. This it was such that it was just. Done at this cafe in zero people danced their worries away its refreshing and good exercise is. The most
effective the most suffer from dementia even if its not always obvious to outsiders. That little dish philippic it sure gets both Body And Soul moving it happens automatically. Seventy five has alzheimers it was diagnosed two years ago. He comes here regularly with his partner. At the egyptians will have noticed that there is more within me that i knew about. It ive been learning a new language thats called movement to be very good to a good image but i dont have to dredge my memory all the same just happens on the Spur Of The Moment this is. A. Dementia pretty much shuts down the Brain Neurons die and are not replaced. Thomas pickel is sixty
tanks. The learning and Memory Center and the regions associated with remembering sounds and melodies music triggers emotions that happens here. Singing or playing an instrument activates this region. Listening to or making music stimulates the restoration of language by creating or enhancing connections between a whole range of systems in the brain. Bruno shared a solo comes in right on cue. To me. I mean thats cute guys thats the means for him if were lucky and a patient used to sing a last song stored in their memory then theyre also able to call up the words of
the lyrics in connection with the melody. It wants on arlington emotional terms thats a very big deal when they realize they can still do that so they can finger on the words just come to them at the right moment thats possible. You know. So. Youre a soul is a good example hes had a hard time talking but he can sing very well. Its not the Language Center thats activated but other regions of the brain. You know. You will be. Of laws news the therapy usually was not bad. On the single lessons. Is. It two hours are somehow liberating. But for i in this pair for i in this but since im cause of folks who think im a the un fung says patient has made excellent progress through squid and first he couldnt other words im so american you could tell he knew what he wanted to say but he couldnt find the words to say as one gets nuff feel walking. For weeks later he can form sentences written to say what he wants as its vital you go and. When i was not some kind of automatic response he cant really express himself. I like the cafe the party is in full swing. I see your shit
in the sex so i delete anon is eighty four and her dementia is far advanced still has one song that always does the trick suddenly shes wide awake and on her toes she would seasick. I would say that its resonates somewhere deep inside field songs from long ago are still familiar i find it so touching to see her the way she used to be able to tell me a good time. At it if it was ever if it was. Everyone is in a good mood and somehow liberated if for a moment thanks to the power of the music. These sponges are surrounded by water music and speaking of sponges what are they and biological terms anyway many people might guess theyre plants but theyre not theyre animals when it comes to the science of life sometimes the i deceives and thats not just true of sponges. Pizza roma to you from what wants to know. Whats the difference between fruit and vegetables. The botanical answer vegetables are plants with leaves and roots. But the fruit always grows from blossoms except that Zucchini Blossoms dont produce any fruit or do that they can be confusing biology is usually viewed as an orderly sides. For example are vertebrates that live in water and have gills. Birds are vertebrates that have feathers and wings. And mammals are vertebrates
covered in hair. But try to differentiate between a fruit and vegetables and even scientists can get a little confused it doesnt help to judge the matter based on Sugar Content either securities for example they can be really sweet but theyre still considered a vegetable the bottom line is that society decides what it considers to be a fruit or a vegetable for. Real botanists use another criteria. They call and you will plants that have to be sown anew each year vegetables. Where as fruit grows on perennial trees or shrugs which lived for many years an apple tree can live for a century or even longer. But even here there are exceptions like asparagus a perennial vegetable but no matter what you choose to call them in the end its the flavor that matters and. If you have
a Science Question write us if we decide to showcase your query on the program well send you a d. V. D. Of our animated einstein explaining many of the great scientist theories. The most simple thing is to never stop asking questions. In Human Development some faces are more difficult than others puberty for example causes huge physical and emotional changes. Experts say this period is accompanied by changes in the brain. And during pregnancy a similar process occurs. Having a child design i point in many womens lives a source of great joy and fulfillment the whole process brings physical and
emotional changes. With a backdoor level bachata after i go i was very happy full of love in every fiber of my being. Everything was suffused with joy flashes of feeling. I was just based on emotions you. See i am with and im going to. Do everything change suddenly when my daughter was born in motion my thoughts it was brutal i was in the same person anymore i never used to be frightened but i am now i much more wary i never used to have second thoughts about things but i do now. So what exactly does change and what are the causes psychologist and neuroscientist erica baba miller from Barcelona University spent eight years researching the issue she worked with a group of women who were planning to have their first child she took brain scans
before they got pregnant and then after they gave birth and then again two years later. Barbara miller compared the scans to those of women who Didnt Have Children Her conclusion after a woman gives birth her brain is no longer the same. I dont know if that when have you became of the volume of grain much of it in a certain specific regions decreased home and this was done she had goodies and that was true for all the mothers in the test the regions that changed are marked in yellow. In the summer maybe half in this crosssection you see the changes at the front and the back you are who are. There we see them from a different perspective its just that this. Shrinking green matter is also been observed in children in the run up to puberty the phenomenon has been dubbed synoptic pruning it start to be an indicator of learning and specialisation the
hypothesis is that in pregnant women a similar process of preparation takes place and hansing the mothers ability to recognise the needs of her child. Look we think it has to do with whats known as a mothers instinct. Thats what helps some of the recognise Whats Going On and have a basis on enables her to tell if its hungry or in pain it is tired ok this was. When you know the changes take place in regions associated with social cognition an area often called Emotional Intelligence the Volume Reduction showed a substantial overlap with Brain Regions involved in a womans response to her baby after its born scans were also made as women were shown photos of their own in other babies so miska sack even. When the mother sees her own baby theres increased activity in exactly the regions that change during pregnancy. Where we see
a shrinkage of the grains that are. Ideas that doesnt happen when she sees another baby. But. Its thought the flood of hormones that comes with pregnancy somehow causes the changes in the Brain Progesterone Levels for example search ten to fifteen fold. And her colleagues believe that the changes in. The brain prepare a woman for her role as mother. Put a lot of them in the family and then to get accountable that is probably the case that these women can recognize faces. No doubt in order to protect themselves from risks or to improve their ability to find help of the. Exponents not saw interpretation. Is does not think that but us here on. The study shows that the changes in georgia for at least two years after a woman has given birth there are many Unanswered Questions such as when exactly during pregnancy the changes take place and what exactly triggers them. To have offspring almost all animals first have to find a partner. For human beings thats generally associated with falling in love a time of glowing feelings and emotional upheaval but the stars of our next report have their own way of going about looking for partners as they glow too but in a very different way. I warm summers night at the end of june in cologne or. The whole city is illuminated. No one here has any idea whats about to take place just a few kilometers ahead of time and a glorious spectacle i wonder of nature and. Its well worth
a trip into the forest. The cool visa and Mohamed My Mary have come to witness the magic that takes place here every season the night before muhammad sold the show for the first time this year the stars are bugs. Just doesnt hear about it there were huge swarms of them must. Start here to save a life here last night as you set up camp here exactly. It was not one more time was it our spirit of our ten pm its going to take a while so i. Am. Then at a quarter past ten the show begins. The hour of the firefly also known as lightning. Only when males are. Hundreds of dancing. The show takes place for one reason only to find a maze. Of memory and of course i like to imagine with the light has been here for millions of years or before humans show doubtlessly and before they were electric light it fascinates me theres something poetic about it was called uterus. But what makes the Fireflies Glow and what do they look like up close. That. Nasa for a full of a couple of lady lawyers up there glowing funded by a diamond. Clan are a little brown bug nondescript in the light and are going to douglas and an. Article by the understand is one stuck in a spiders web. It may be trapped but it keeps on glowing. The light producing organism the back of the abdomen. A Chemical Reaction in the cells creates a life. Almost all of the energy gets turned into lice. Theres no Artificial Light thats more efficient but where the females. This one looks very much like a female just sort of. A lot of us reports are its almost buried in the dry leaves
you can hardly see. The females just sit on the forest floor without moving they light up much later than the males. Scientists believe the females only send out like signals after their stimulated by the males beginning to glow then their light attracts the males. For male fireflies its crucial to quickly find a mate mating its first come first served. After making the males love light fades away and they die. Females also shuttles their lights and begin with egg production. Two days later still die as well. After ninety minutes the spectacular show is over. But for the next few evenings the
fireflies will be out there searching for a mate. An organisms ability to emit light has a name. It occurs when a protein called a lucifer in and an enzyme called the Lucifer React with energy rich a. T. P. Molecules and oxygen. As the report mentioned this Chemical Process is a very efficient. Ninety five percent of the energy it produces is emitted as a light just five percent as heat. Within can doesnt light bulbs that ratio is reversed. There in efficiency inspired researchers to make l. E. D. S. Modeled on firefly its good. For more stories from the world of research on technology and for our website d. W.
