Making Math Moments That Matter
Education:How To
It can feel frustrating and overwhelming and you’ll feel like you’re forced to “go back to the drawing board” when your curriculum resource is pulled away from you.
What do we consider when trying to select a new curriculum resource?
Are we supposed to create our own resources from scratch?
As educators, we are constantly facing the challenge of adapting our teaching methods to improve student understanding and engagement.
This often involves exploring new pedagogies, such as problem-based learning, and selecting the right curriculum resources that align with our teaching goals.
In this episode we speak with long-time friend of the show Katrien Vance, a middle school math teacher in Virginia.
Katriene is trying to decide how to transition to a new curriculum resource and feels overwhelmed with the work ahead. Stick around and you’ll hear how together we make a plan for next steps.
