New Insights and Implications

Since this class started I've learned several things in regards to concepts about math education. I've always viewed math as a very dry subject with only one right answer; when in fact there are several ways to approach one problem. It's important to encourage students to come up with a solution in their own way rather than paving the path for them. When doing this we teach students problem solving skills. We also talked about the importance of using the right math standards for both state and national. We also learned about what standards mean and how to analyze each standard and put an appropriate assignment with each standard.
