Dr. Ilana Horn joins Justin Reich to discuss finding the strengths in every student, listening more closely to student thinking, and finding ways to shift curriculum from “school math” to the kind of math that’s both more engaging to students and closer to what real mathematicians do. Dr. Horn offers a slew of concrete strategies for teachers and teacher educators, from roster audits, to “becoming invisible” to mediated field experiences.

  • Making math interesting for kids
  • Addressing context variables in math
  • Asset Framing your students
  • Mathematics vs. “School Math” values
  • Working with in-service teachers
