I was just reading Math Education Is STEM Education! by @mlarson_math via @NCTM nctm.org/News-and-Calendar/M… and had one of those AHA moments, it's the same for Science. Science education is inherently STEM #stem #scichat - It fits my STEAM = Inquiry Integration definition

The high school mathematics curriculum isn't working for all students. It needs to be reformed to encourage understanding of the math needed in society, say @robertqberry and @mlarson_math. #MathEd #edchat @NCTM @JoshuaPStarr @educationweek bit.ly/2EvocG8

Replying to @ErinLMcCain @NWAESC
Yes! .@tkanold & .@mlarson_math explain precisely & clearly the needed balanced approach to math education & put to rest the misconceptions. Every math educator & parent should read it!

I see it differently. The debate goes way back (see @mlarson_math’s articles.) It is not about what is “known”, or a straightforward arc of history. It is a battle about values, with decent arguments on all sides, which is best resolved by an intelligent eclecticism.

As @mlarson_math writes on Shaped, #math teachers need to move beyond rules and practice problems—and focus on engaging students in reasoning and problem solving. Read more: spr.ly/6015EWIBH
