The podcast also led me to educators like Jonathan Regino, whose work has inspired me and helped me see a path forward for my dau... more

Anna is fighting the good fight for clear, effective math instruction. Constructivist math is math’s “Whole Language Reading” moment and is harming our kids. Shout it from the mountaintop Anna!

I can’t wait to listen to the next episode. I learn so much about how to teach — all the things I wish I’d learned in my education degree! I appreciate the frank and direct information and the positive focus on excellence in the teaching and learning of math, without getting bogged down in unnecessary controversy. What a joy to hear Anna Stokke and Anita Archer in conversation. Thank you.

As another reviewer said common sense, but also, thoroughly grounded in science and research. Anna gets the best guests from around the world. I think it’s a plus as well that she’s in Canada, because in the US much of the discourse around education gets overly political, which is unfortunate. Anna is an actual mathematician and instructor at the college level. She sees what the kids need to be prepared to get upper level courses and be college/university ready. Enough with vibe mathing. Just te... more
