Thinking Mathematically - Podcast
Today’s students are preparing for a future where science, technology, engineering and math are critical to engaging in a global economy. By making connections and building conceptual understanding of Mathematical content and processes, students learn to apply analytical thinking and problem-solving to organize and make sense of situations they encounter in school and in life.
A particularly interesting component of thinking mathematically is the language of Math. As you will hear Dr. Levine discuss in the podcast “Three Essential Parts of Mathematical Understanding”, math places unique demands on the semantic networks of students. To understand and communicate about mathematical concepts taps into the inherent connection between language and cognition.
