   Never forget your coordinate fields and unit circle. Probably one of the most important things to know as an engineer.

     So true!

     And also, there are so many mathematical 'tools' one should know how to use in Engineering field.

     🎓 Dr. Freemo :jpf: 🇳🇱 repeated this.

     @thj I'm not the first one to see the connection, I just had good teachers. But thank you.

     @thj I think that has less to do with how early you present it and more to do with how it was presented. As a kid I was never shown a thing and simply told it was so (if I was I rejected it).

     What I was taught is why the math is the way it is, how to derrive it, use it, how to understand it, at a young age. I'd say this is the only way to learn it in a way that is valuable. Just memorizing formulas isnt going to help anyone and will give overconfidence however.

     @thj Questions and curiosity is the only way to learn. But yea sadly most teachers dont know how to break that barrier with their students, it is a shame. That is one reason I try to be very generous with teaching others when and if they are interested in learning.
