About this episode
"Always bet on people" - Dan Meyer
In this episode of Blue Glasses Math, I sit down with Dan Meyer, a passionate advocate for better math instruction that truly supports both teachers and students. You may know him from his viral TED Talk, Math Class Needs a Makeover, or his work as Chief Academic Officer at Desmos Classroom, or his recent National Math Leadership Award from NCSM .
Dan shares his insights on how to support math teachers in shifting their practice, why we need to trust students to think mathematically, and how technology, when used to foster curiosity, can invite students into mathematical conversations.
Dan's Substack is a must read.
