Four cards. Any operation. One goal: reach 24.
Make 24 is one of the most effective arithmetic fluency tools ever designed—and one of the most underused. In today's episode, Dr. Gene Constant explains why this simple card game builds the specific mathematical competencies that most formal instruction misses: number sense, mental arithmetic fluency, and the strategic thinking that comes from exploring relationships between numbers rather than executing specified procedures.
We cover the Nobel Prize research on mathematical transfer failure, why Make 24 produces durable skill rather than classroom performance, and how the game fits into GSU's complete Mathification curriculum.
Watch the two-minute video overview first—then play the free game—then decide if you want the book. That is the GSU sequence.
