206: The Thinking Classroom: An Interview with Peter Liljedahl

In too many classrooms, our students aren't really thinking. What they're doing instead is more like mimicking, and my guest Peter Liljedahl is determined to change that. In this episode, we'll learn about his Thinking Classroom approach to instruction, where students are up on their feet, actively and collaboratively problem-solving, in a format that has taken the math world (and beyond) by storm.  Thanks to Listenwise and Wipebook for sponsoring this episode.
