#StudentSuccess | Academic Success Tip: Encouraging Class Attendance

Learning in college goes hand in hand with showing up to class. Professors find success promoting attendance using four methods. #HigherEd https://t.co/uR3m1Zei0T

@MrsKoreyAHS @NewellES @NEHS_ahs Such a wonderful idea!

@MsPetersonAHS Awesome costume!!

As a math teacher I don't consider myself to be a poetry person...but this poem really got me...and then I read about the author and WOW!

@SteeleThoughts Very true - bringing joy, empathy, and compassion to the classroom goes a long way to building relationship with your students

Students came up with some excellent AP Calculus memes

It takes a monster to kill children. But to watch monsters kill children again and again and do nothing isn’t just insanity—it’s inhumanity.

For fun! 🚀

@cluzniak I believe it may open AP Calc for more students - perhaps I am being naïve - but it could be a nice opportunity to rethink current pathways

What book(s) would you recommend for a faculty or staff to promote problem solving in a mathematics classroom? #iteachmath

[Dr. Scott M. Petri @scottmpetri]

The current system of mathematics teaching in the U.S. blunts our children’s possibilities, telling far too many of them at a very early age that #math isn’t for them. https://t.co/ZocdLDZsMK #edchat #lausd OpEd from @joboaler @JFKCougars

@GholdyM Anything on the Guardians of the Galaxy soundtrack - the whole album puts the class in a good mood

[Matthew Aurand @Math_Aurand]

@joboaler #thankyou All of the realities you mention are vital skills for students entering a more technological and data driven world-it boggles the mind why would we not want to expose students to other areas of mathematics besides algebra and calculus

[Matthew Aurand @Math_Aurand]

@howie_hua Decided to use your idea of allowing the first five minutes to allow students to talk to each other while looking at the quiz. Cannot believe how directed their conversations were - students were engaged and came away confident #thanks

“Sudoku” is short for a longer Japanese expression which means, “the digits are limited to one occurrence.” Did you know, there's no calculation or an analytical approach to playing. The digits are the only mathematical symbol of the game. Give it a try and see how you do!

Day 1 of #thinkingclassroom down and students enjoyed working in randomized groupings on "Four 4s" problem. Looking forward to day 2!

Looking forward to starting a new school year and getting to work with another group of wonderful young people #sivako

@pgliljedahl getting ready for the upcoming school year and wondering how to de-front my classroom if all students must face the same direction #thinkingclassroom #mtbos
