Soving the Rubik Cube
A Small puzzle with Big Benefits
Of course learning to solve the Rubik's Cube is fun, and our turnkey program makes learning and teaching others easy. But there is more ... Whether you solve the Rubik's Cube in ten-seconds or ten days, you experience a great sense of accomplishment and pride. In addition, learning to solve the Rubik's Cube helps teach many life lessons such as following direction, perseverance, memorization and focus.
Initially developed by Erno Rubik as a tool to help students understand more about three-dimensional geometry, Rubik's Cube has instead become one of the world's best-selling toy ever.
As with all complex games, the rules are simple: solve the game, by making each face of the cube having only a single colour. However, it is extremely challenging to do so: Although a standard 3X3 Rubik's Cube can present 43,252,003,274,489,856,000 possible scenarios, or simply more than 43 quintillion possible configurations, sadly the fact is there is only 1 solution for each scenario.
Hence, the possibility of someone able to solve every conceivable scenario is so minimal that it tends to zero. It is a game that tests more on logic and reason than on guesswork. Solving the cube is easy; any newcomer can solve most problems within a few weeks of interaction. What differentiates the "cubaholics" from the novices ,is that the former seeks out the formula for solving the cube in the least number of moves, i.e. to say, the optimal solution. And that, is what that gives the Rubik's Cube huge potential as an excellent teaching tool.
Why Rubik's Cube?
First, playing Rubik's Cube can help develop good habits like patience.
To solve any scenario of the cube using the least number of steps is not easy: One has to think slowly. There is no room for guesswork - a few steps in the wrong direction within a few seconds is all it takes to destroy the solver's painstaking work done within the past hour. This inevitably trains children to think carefully before making any move, similar to chess. Through the game they learn that patience and perseverance is the key to success.
Second, not all people who can solve Rubik's cube can said to be masters at it. The truly proficient ones are those who need not rely on guesswork: They are the ones who are able to instruct novices on how to solve the cube in a systematic way, using logical reasoning that anyone can understand. And it is this insistence on logical reasoning required by this game, that subconsciously trains the child's brain to be systematic and disciplined in whatever they do in the future.
For parents who wish to see their children working in the fields of computer engineering or architecture, Rubik's Cube provides an even more convincing reason.
