The Fall 2019 issue of the Boston University College of Engineering Magazine highlights the importance of cross-disciplinary collaborations in facilitating scientific discoveries. The title article discusses the inspiration behind the Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) and Systems Engineering (SE) Divisions of the College of Engineering, which were created as a means of promoting research between Biomedical (BME), Mechanical (ME) and Electrical & Computer Engineering (ECE) departments. Several collaborative research projects are discussed, including the work of Professor Sandor Vajda (BME, SE) and Professor Ioannis Paschalidis (ECE, BME, SE) who have collaborated for decades on the development of automated servers for protein binding prediction.

If you're searching for an interactive multiplication table to help your child practice, online tools offer some great options. Instead of just static charts, these can include features like highlighting rows and columns, fill-in-the-blank exercises, or even multiplication games. This active engagement can make learning times tables much more effective and less monotonous. It’s a great way to reinforce classroom learning at home and help kids build confidence in their math abilities through playful interaction and immediate feedback.
For mastering multiplication, especially up to the multiplication chart 1-100, having visual aids and practice tools is key. Online platforms often provide free printable charts that kids can use for reference, as well as interactive games and exercises. These resources can cater to different learning styles and make the process of memorizing times tables more dynamic. The combination of visual charts, practice opportunities, and gamified learning can significantly boost a child's understanding and recall of multiplication facts, setting a strong foundation for future math success.
