Description

When it comes to math, some students need to be challenged in order to move from mundane computation to higher-level conceptualization. In this brief video from our Essentials series, Joyce Juntune, Ph.D., shares three tips for challenging students to deepen their understanding of mathematics.

In this lesson, you will learn:

  • How to teach students to solve math problems in a variety of ways rather than solving them the same way
  • How to teach students to create their own math problems
  • How to teach students to solve math problems in new, unusual ways
Each tip is designed to be integrated into your upcoming math assignments and to appeal to a different set of students, making it easy for you to adapt Dr. Juntune’s tips to best fit your classroom.
