Curriculum For All: An Introduction To Calculus, Maggie Scott
Curriculum For All: An Introduction To Calculus, Maggie Scott
Honors Theses
Math is one of the only subjects that builds upon itself throughout a student’s educational career. Progressing through each course, students are taught concepts that build upon each other year after year. The content is engaged with itself, yet, it’s historically taught in a non-engaging way. Through my research of math education and my experience as a math teacher, it’s apparent that the most successful math classrooms are the ones that elicit student thinking and allow for self-discovery. (Azad)
