What an amazing story from Michael about his journey and where it has led him. We all have our own journeys with ups and downs. Like Michael I was taught using traditional methods (although I don’t remember going over homework, but I am sure I did at times) and that was the only way I knew how to present math for my students when I began teaching in 1981. I have had a gradual progression with a big shift in 2005 when I began using peer tutoring in my classes. I will also re-watch the TedTalk. I am very excited to begin spiralling my classes this fall.
