April 25, 2025The Math Shark – Are We Going to Need a Bigger Boat?
Does higher education need to prepare for students who may be suffering from the math shark? Is education for pre-service teachers being modified to account for the math shark?

Rob and Ryan chat with Dr. Terri Bucci (Associate Professor and Researcher in Mathematics Education at The Ohio State University) about the state of math education and how it can be approached differently to help students.
