Answer getting should not be the only goal of math class because there are too many ways to get answers with no learning happening. New book Developing Mathematical Reasoning: Avoiding the Trap of Algorithms. mathisfigureoutable.com/avoidthetraps #MathIsFigureOutAble #MTBoS #ITeachMath
Developing Mathematical Reasoning - the basis of my work. It's about how we build more sophisticated reasoning. I offer a free online workshop because I want to change the way we teach math. bit.ly/dmrworkshop #MathIsFigureOutAble #MathChat #MTBoS #ITeachMath #MathEd
"Our results suggest that word reading and spelling are one and the same, almost, but that spoken vocabulary knowledge is more closely related to reading than to spelling." Open article from the great Rebecca Treiman and colleagues. link.springer.com/article/10.100…
If we use grades the right way, at the right time, and for the right reasons, they can be an effective form of feedback for students. kappanonline.org/grades-feedbac…
Getting answers can't be the only point of math class. Otherwise we'd just teach students to use calculators and be done. bit.ly/mathpcast251 #MathIsFigureOutAble #MTBoS #ITeachMath #MathEd
IMO… 🧐 If we all posted, publicized, and made #neurology as approachable as it is this week during #AANAM, we would have a lot more support behind the work we do! 💚 Raise awareness for neurological disease year round, make it accessible, get people involved! You have to be…

It’s All Connected: Linking the Science of Learning with the Science of Literacy from @NancyWexler #STLinATL #STLinATL2025 Content knowledge impacts comprehension. Writing can provide benefits to move from information, to working memory, to long term memory. Cognitive load.
Beyond Assessment for Learning: Assessments that IMPROVE Learning from @tguskey #STLinATL #STLinATL2025 What is learned from participating in the assessment? Does the assessment match the learning goals? Are you focused on finding success?
Teach the whole child, not the box they're placed in. #StartWithTheCrown #RuthlessEquity
So many engaging conversations between educators and thought leaders at #LearnFwd24 last week! Who did you chat with? @LearningForward @DFISHERSDSU @NancyFrey @drmarciatate @tguskey @jimknight99 @Jigsaw_Learning @easkelton
