@MATHster_Jedi gave such a compelling talk about lowering student anxiety during assessments by having them COLLABORATE. Love this idea and how it contributes to #buildingthinkingclassrooms
Shifting from "best practices" to "expansive notions of good teaching" leaves room for teaching to be discussable. Thank you @ilana_horn for this distinction. @MathEdLeaders#NCSM2022
In order to say that kids don't need algorithms, we have to be really clear about the understanding they DO need. Thank you @pwharris for modeling this well for us! @MathEdLeaders#NCSM2022
Reflecting on the cognitive investment in our vision for math education with @toncheff5 "what actions align with the shared vision?" is such a great question to think deeply about. @MathEdLeaders#NCSM2022
When students encounter challenge on the heels of success, that's when perseverance is developed. Perseverance is not a trait, it's a state. @pgliljedahl#NCSM2022
