The Human Side of Math Classrooms: Beyond Right Answers with Chase Orton
Manage episode 491909444 series 3337780
Chase Orton shares his vision for transforming math education by shifting teacher identity from content deliverers to "cultural stewards" of students' mathematical stories. He advocates for embracing imperfection while continuously growing, focusing on human connections rather than test scores, and creating classrooms where mistakes are valuable learning opportunities.
