What is student-centered learning and why should we use it in math?

A student-centered math classroom has students doing the work – the thinking, doing, exploring, figuring out. The teacher is the guide on the side in that exploration and sense making.

In this episode, we're chatting about: 

• What student-centered learning is NOT (hint: out of control or easier for kids)
• The students' role in student-centered math
• The teacher’s role in a student-centered classroom
• How to plan and facilitate a student-centered math class
