I’m really struggling with teachers using phrases like “low kids”. Heard it today from a somewhat experienced teacher who just finished a phd in education. Curious how others treat these moments?

Hey friends- I have 3 students interested in debating for/against banning cell phones in schools, and we're still looking for one person to debate against cell phone bans (pro-cell phones). Do you happen to know a young person (16-20ish? years old) who might be a good fit? Send me a message!

What if math class was a place for real discussion, argument, and messy thinking, not just quick answers? That's exactly what Chris Luzniak has built in his classroom. Learn more in this week's podcast episode! www.cultofpedagogy.com/debate-math/

Instead of focusing solely on the answer, in a debate, students focus on thinking and reasoning. Here's how we do it in math.
