Episode description
Most of us are probably teaching the way we were taught, to get correct answers to problems. But we aren't actually helping students understand and reason about the math. Which is more important? In this episode Pam and Kim discuss answer getting versus relationship building.
Talking Points:
- Phil Daro's research on patterns of math instruction from across the world
- Student success from answer getting instruction vs instruction that focuses on outcomes from reasoning
- The real purpose of math class
- Now that I know different, how can I do different and help kids reason?
