Session Description
Rethink Math Instruction! It has been said that change in education is slow moving, but not anymore! Ride along as Dr. Matthew Beyranevand shares his wild journey as a teacher, administrator, professor, and back to a teacher. This cycle has led him to change nearly every belief in math instruction. Together, we investigate assessing students, gaming in math, conceptual understanding, and instilling a passion for math!
