What do we want students to get out of math class? Proficiency? A love of math? Job prospects?

Today we are passing things over to Kent Haines. Kent is a Heinemann Fellow Alum and middle school math educator based in Alabama. He is joined by Heinemann author Steve Leinwand. Steve is the author of Accessible Mathematics and Sensible Mathematics, and most recently the co-author of Invigorating High School Math.

Kent and Steve discuss the current status of math instruction in the United States and some long-overdue transformations that would benefit our students.
