A Better Way To Teach Math

My guest today is a passionate math educator who has sought to teach learners in this exploratory manner and in a way that the students feel they are capable of understanding mathematical concepts deeply.

In my conversation with Kevin Moore, we explore:

• how one teacher helped him begin to view himself as a mathematician
• his journey from traditional education to the micro-school model
• how the physical space can foster the learning he hopes to see
• how it's MORE than just the physical space that helps foster the learning he hopes to see
• what our roles is and is not as math educators
• how to redirect incorrect work without just giving away the answer
• Kevin's favorite questions to ask students
• and much more.
