@howie_hua HS math search committee.
Yes, I do. I’m looking for odd things, grades that don’t match interest. Eg, teacher who got Cs in math classes through college but wants to teach math. I ask for an explanation. If they didn’t like it then, what changed? Why do they want to be here?

@howie_hua Note: this was many years after high school. I typed papers on a manual typewriter in school, but I was always hesitant because of White-out. Wasn't until the delete key that I really learned how.

@howie_hua Keeping bugs off the windshield?
Totally.

@MrHonner Thinking about this question or ones like it - deciding which idea is hardest for students to grasp and why - feels like the best way to wrap up teacher preparation.
@howie_hua, you're in this business; do you agree?
