Ep 297: What Makes Good Shifts in a School's Math Teaching?

What does it take to make real change in a school's math program? In this episode, Pam and Kim share what does and doesn't work to make lasting, systemic change in mathematics teaching for schools and school districts.

Talking Points:

• Teachers should not have to be expert teachers and expert curriculum writers at the same time.
• Good curriculum change alone is not enough
• Lock-step plans backfire 
• Teachers need math-ing experiences
• Teachers need to analyze mathematics for teaching
• Teachers need bite-off-able tasks
• Gradual, differentiated shifts over time last
