Teaching Math in 2025: Dan Meyer on Tools, Trends, and True Engagement
About this episode
How do we move beyond drill-and-kill and actually engage students in math? In this visionary episode, Dan Meyer shares how Desmos and Amplify are transforming math classrooms—and what every teacher needs to know for the future of math instruction.
Highlights from Dan Meyer include:
• Real-Time Math Engagement: How Desmos shifts math from static worksheets to dynamic experiences. How Amplify also works in this area.
• Embedded PD That Works: Why the best professional development happens inside the tools teachers already use.
• The Mindset Shift: Why great math teachers start with what students already know—not just what's in the book.
