Andrew Fenner @numbershapes.bsky.social · 01/07/2025There's so much a kids brain can do, even before they learn to count. I created Opal because I couldn't wait to start exploring numbers with my son. This game focuses on building estimation skills while building towards counting & cardinality. #math #education #games 210

Reposted by Andrew FennerAndrew Fenner @numbershapes.bsky.social · 21/12/2024Giving students the autonomy to attempt problems on their own should not be conflated with giving them the responsibility to learn on their own. The feedback cycle is necessary for learning and you cannot get feedback without trying. #Math #ScienceOfLearning #Maths #Education 052

If we accept this as fact, then widespread AI usage with a deemphasis on teachers will actually increase inequality. 131
