50+Ways to Tell a Story - 0 views

  •

The point is not that these are professional level production tools, but that the barrier of entry to content creation can be drastically low. And you should find a new mode of creativity when the tool have some limits as to what they can do-- and find that the core of the story is much more important than a widget."

The paradox of Australian mathematics education - 0 views

  • To teach mathematics well, one must know more than the mathematical topic at hand, the specific techniques to be taught; one must also know about the mathematics, why the topic is the way that it is. That involves consideration of the fundamental nature of mathematics and mathematical thought, including a proper appreciation of mathematics' long and difficult history.
  •  
    "The major stumbling block for mathematics education in Australia is that teachers, qualified or not, don't learn enough mathematics and they don't learn it well enough"

  • Over time the students felt comfortable enough to tell me when they really didn't like the learning style I was using or that they enjoyed a particular way I presented the content. I had a better grasp on the learning my students were doing and they had a better grasp on the content. It was a definite win-win.
