5 Tips for Improving Students’ Success in Math - Edutopia | Educational Pedagogy | Scoop.it
What does it take to improve student success and interest in math? The Philadelphia-based Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) asked more than 400 U.S. high school math teachers for their advice related to teaching and learning mathematics.

More so than smiling or standing like Wonder Woman, the words you let loose have a direct effect on you and everyone around you.


Here are 4 phrases to start farming out of your life for good."

Are we killing students' creativity in school? They have assigned seats and assigned groups. They must seek permission to go to the toilet or get a drink. The entire day of a student is filled with numerous acts of compliance and few opportunities for creativity.

Curiosity Leads to Growth

Curiosity Leads to Growth | Educational Pedagogy | Scoop.it

If an educator believes they have nothing to learn, I would love to see the results of perfection in their classroom or school and would want to see them replicate that in different contexts. Until I have proof of that, we still have learning to do.
