Enriching Elementary School Mathematical Learning with the Steepest Descent Algorithm

The steepest descent (or ascent) algorithm is one of the most widely used algorithms in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). However, this powerful mathematical tool is neither taught nor even mentioned in K12 education. We study whether it is feasible for elementary school stud...
