In this episode we speak with veteran Grade 8 classroom teacher, author and current NCTM President, Kevin Dykema.

Kevin spends time with us to unpack why productive struggle is a necessary part of an effective mathematics program, what we can do now to plan and implement lessons that place students in a productive struggle and how we might get key stakeholders convinced that learning in a math classroom that might look different than the one they remember can be a good thing for students.

You’ll Learn:

  • What can you do differently than teaching math just “slower and louder”;
  • Why productive struggle is a necessary part of an effective mathematics program;
  • What you can do now to plan and implement elements of productive struggle;
  • How to ensure a lesson crafted to provide a productive struggle is delivered with productive struggle (instead of the teacher robbing the thinking of students);
  • How to help families and key stakeholders get “on board” with teaching through productive struggle; and,
  • What resources are great for modifying your lessons to allow for more productive struggle.
