Oftentimes we’re taught how to invert and multiply, but a lot of students don’t understand why the invert and multiply operation works. This video showcases why we invert and multiply when dividing fractions. Watch here: youtube.com/shorts/vnmpU... @copurgencturk.bsky.social

Fractions can be confusing (even for adults!) This YouTube Short breaks down why we find common denominators in a way that actually makes sense. youtube.com/shorts/9ajG6... #math #fractions #commondenominator #education @copurgencturk.bsky.social

Fractions Don't Have To Be Confusing

When students make mistakes, they are often attributed to social stereotypes. Teachers need to encourage every student to succeed and resist their cognitive biases. Watch now: youtube.com/shorts/wwCpg...

Sometimes, the same correct answer in math is seen differently based on who the student is, which can lead to unfair treatment. The aim is to make learning fairer so that everyone has an equal opportunity to succeed. youtube.com/shorts/lIG_4... #education #bias #math @copurgencturk.bsky.social

Did you know? Research shows that letting students solve problems before teaching the method helps teachers learn how students think, which leads to more effective teaching. Check out the video to learn more! youtube.com/shorts/s1dFR...

What makes “good” teaching? Effective mathematics instruction requires a complex set of skills and knowledge. At The Science of Teaching Mathematics, we research what makes math teaching effective and how educators can improve their practice. Website: www.scienceofteachingmath.com
