Moving beyond rote memorization toward true math mastery
In short: How do educators move students from simply completing problems to deeply understanding mathematical concepts? This conversation explores practical strategies for teachers to facilitate meaningful learning through intentional dialogue.
Kristen DiCerbo, who leads learning at Khan Academy, sits down with Ted Coe, PhD of NWEA’s Content Advocacy and Design department, for an Ed Talk. They discuss the transition from passive learning to math mastery, specifically focusing on how teachers can initiate these shifts in the classroom.
The discussion highlights the use of formative conversation starters as a tool for guiding student understanding. By creating specific entry points for dialogue, educators can help students navigate complex concepts more effectively.
