  • High School Mathematics Reimagined Revitalized and Relevant
    2024/11/12

    In this episode of Room to Grow, Joanie and Curtis speak with leaders of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) about their recent publication, High School Mathematics Reimagined, Revitalized and Relevant. Latrenda Knighten, NCTM President and Kevin Dykema, NCTM Past-President share a great overview of how rethinking how and what we teach in high school math can be improved so that more students leave high school prepared. This preparation involves not only knowing more mathematics, but believing in their capability as math learners and in their preparation for whatever path they have chosen for themselves after graduating.

    The new “three Rs” of high school math build on NCTM’s previous high school publication, Catalyzing Change in High School Mathematics: Initiating Critical Conversations from 2018, and give practical examples and suggestions to engage students in mathematical and statistical modeling, make connections across major concepts, and using mathematical and statistical processes as a frame for student thinking.

  • Asset-Based Teaching to Transform Math Class
    2024/10/15

    In this episode of Room to Grow, Joanie and Curtis speak with Mike Steele and Joleigh Honey, authors of the recently released book transform your math class using asset-based teaching for grades 6-12. The book and the conversation explore what is meant by “asset-based,” and why shifting to more asset-based approaches supports a broader range of learners.

    Mike and Joleigh unpack ideas around asset-based language, including, the language of mathematics, the language students use to talk about math, and the language educators use to talk about students. They also explore classroom and instructional routines, many of which are already in common use in classrooms, and how to ensure these routines fall more on the asset side of the continuum than on the deficit side. Finally, the conversation shifts to the larger educational structures that could benefit from a more asset-focused lens.

    We encourage you to explore the resources below, referenced in this episode:

    · Mike and Joleigh’s book, Tranform your math class using asset-based teaching for grades 6-12 can be found here

    · Learn more about Mike Steele here or here and about Joleigh Honey here or here

    · Mike and Joleigh both serve on the NCTM Board of Directors

  • Teaching and Learning Math: Students’ Perspectives - Part 2
    2024/09/17

    In this episode of Room to Grow, Joanie and Curtis continue their conversations with middle and high school students to gain their perspectives on learning math. Our hosts interviewed six students from grades 7-12 in three different sessions. Because all of these conversations were rich with great comments, this is the second of two episodes of Room to Grow devoted to these students’ perspectives; if you haven’t already listened to part 1, we encourage you to do so.

    Part 2 focuses on these students’ perceptions on asking questions in class and managing when they don’t understand, as well as their thoughts about homework. Once again, these students shared some really powerful ideas, and we hope they get you thinking!

    We encourage you to explore the resources below, referenced in this episode:

    · Riya’s Ramblings podcast – find on your favorite podcast platform or HERE on Apple Podcasts

    · Not the article Joanie mentioned, but some other great ideas for teaching students how to study

    • Teaching Students to Use Evidence-Based Study Strategies
    • Five Ways to Teach Students the Skill of Active Studying
    • Teaching Your Students How to Study
    • Resources for thinking about homework
      • NCTM resources related to homework
      • Ideas for Assigning More Meaningful Math Homework
