Firstly, I apologize if my question is long.
Three years ago, I watched a video with the name Battle of the Brains. It was a wonderful video about challenging some famous peoples to solve some special problems. I learned many new things from this video. Unfortunately, I could not find any similar video, but I interested in the abilities of people to attack a problem.
So, I studied many references about the system of educations in different countries. I found many parameters as like as; teacher education and qualifications, academic standards, teacher effectiveness, lesson plans and modules, teacher characteristics, instructional materials, program effectiveness, program evaluation, culture, history, class activities, educational games, number systems, cognitive ability, foreign influence, and fundamental concepts, are so important in learning mathematics.
Recently, I found the book African Mathematics: From Bones to Computers by Mamokgethi Setati, Abdul Karim Bangura that is very interesting. I think there are some good references as like as this book. My requests are:
Would you please introduce me video files as like as Battle of the Brains?
Would you please introduce textbooks or sites that are about cultural mathematics as like as the book above?
I think there are some references about the research of American mathematicians in Chinese cultural mathematics. I will appreciate, if someone reference these documents.
