The innovative and entertaining program GET THE MATH helps middle and high school students develop algebraic thinking skills for solving real-world problems. Drawing on conventions of popular reality TV shows, GET THE MATH challenges teens to solve a series of problems using algebraic thinking. Segments begin with profiles of young professionals with interesting careers in fashion design, videogame development and music production. Then, those individuals challenge two pairs of high school students - Carter and Yasmin, Calen and Jiayun - to work through problems connected to their jobs.
