- Thursday: Discussion - Teaching Mathematics as a Science
- Bethany writes, "It seems that
the prevading philosophy of teaching and learning mathematics is pushing us as
educators [...] to make math more of a discovery process than just
giving students the concepts and trying to process them...What do you think?
- Thursday: Discussion - Your Favorite Tools
- Don Link started this thread in the Roundtable Discussion and a few other people have chimed in so far. He writes, " I'm fairly new to the MathTools community, and I thought it would be useful if some of you "longer-timers" would share your N favorite tools cataloged on the site (I'm thinking like your top 10, but any value of N would be fine)."
