This is a conversation my department is getting ready to have, so the timing of my watching this lesson is uncannily relevant. I am definitely on the discovery and inquiry side of this argument. The school is very progressive as well, but the Maths department is full of traditionalists. The administrative level is changing next year and they are going to start requiring more inquiry in the Maths department. I am excited that maybe the leadership in the department will also change and I won’t be so lonely in my thinking anymore. 🙂
