One problem to start. Pass it and your witness link is live.
A mindset becomes an identity when it is attached to evidence: a problem solved, a person who saw it, and the learner saying it out loud.
Who signs up. A parent or teacher signs up for students under 13. Students 13 and older can sign up themselves.
What a proof looks like. Levels 2 to 4: two-step equations, unlike denominators, percent change, handshake counting, a missing angle.
What a witness says. "You solved for x with variables on both sides. I see a math person."
The next step. Science as a second subject. Claiming both, with a witness for each, earns Full House.
Start here: one problem
A first name or nickname is all we ask for. No email, no last name, no birthday. For a child under 13, a parent or teacher signs up and sits beside them.
What the national data says
In 2012 NSF asked eleventh graders whether they agreed with “I see myself as a math person.” 44% did. In 2016, 43% of those who agreed were STEM majors, against 31% of those who disagreed.
Being seen counts as much as seeing it yourself: for “Others see me as a math person.” the figures are 43% and 30%. Test confidence is more common (65% have it) and weaker: 39% against 31%.

Questions people ask
Math mindset challenge?
One problem to start. Pass it and your witness link is live. A mindset becomes an identity when it is attached to evidence: a problem solved, a person who saw it, and the learner saying it out loud.
Why can't I claim it right away?
Because in the national data a claim with nothing behind it does not move anything. Here the claim unlocks after one graded proof and one witness, so the sentence means what it says.
What do I get for sharing my link?
2 points for each new person who opens it, 40 when someone joins through it and solves their own proof, 20, 10, 5, 2.5 and 1.25 for the generations below them, and 20 more when someone you brought in reaches their own claim. The Share badges run from 1 recruit to 81 and from a chain 2 deep to 13 deep.
Does it cost anything?
No. There is nothing to buy, and no badge, rank or point can be bought. A purchase never fires a trigger.
What do you collect about my child?
A first name or nickname, a role, a language and, if you choose, a county. No email, no last name, no birthday. For a child under 13 the adult signs up and sits beside them.
