"Tony DeRose wanders between rows at New York's Museum of Mathematics. In a brightly-colored button-up T-shirt that may be Pixar standard issue, he doesn't look like the stereotype of a scientist. He greets throngs of squirrely, nerdy children and their handlers - parents and grandparents, math and science teachers - as well as their grown-up math nerd counterparts, who came alone or with their friends. One twentysomething has a credit for crowd animation on Cars 2; he's brought his mom. She wants to meet the pioneer whose work lets her son do what he does."

In 2010, we used the flipped classroom model with 140 freshman students.  We have reduced the failure rate by 33% in English Language Arts, 31% in Mathematics, 22% in Science and 19% in Social Studies in just one semester.  In addition, we have seen a dramatic reduction of 66% in our total discipline for our freshman group as well.  This approach also allowed us to properly integrate current technologies, guarantee and streamline our curriculum, provide educational services when students and teachers are absent, share staff resources and much, much more... Today, we are flipping our entire high school.  We are committed to giving our students and staff the very best we have to offer and have embraced this opportunity to improve the delivery of our instructional practice.

Very interesting Math software from UMass Dartmouth. 

Most agree that math smarts are essential to the country's future.
