Great teachers don’t leave success to chance—they assume nothing, prepare for everything, and respond with evidence. Excellence isn’t luck; it’s intentional. #TeachingExcellence

Alberta has...
- lowest funded classrooms in Canada
- huge class sizes
- new inferior curriculum
- a teacher shortage

Question: Have I written a College Algebra tome, or is it really a pre-service teacher's piece?
ARITHMETIC & ALGEBRA FOR TEACHERS, TEACHING, AND RADICAL COMPREHENSION or some such?

[Helen Reynolds MBE @helenrey]

US math (+maybe physics) teachers...

The word 'exponential' has entered the vocab of nearly every Ss I teach.

My understanding is that it's exponential if the rate of it depends on it - that's how I teach it in calc based physics.

What's going on?
