Part 2 of my chat with Max Ray of The Math Forum. 

This week we hear from Max Ray of The Math Forum about the identity of Dr. Math, pro-tips for teaching geometry, what is critical when giving written feedback, and what he does at The Math Forum.

This conversation was kicked off after I read Josh's blogpost Why school itself undermines the message of lifelong learning. The subtext we send students daily in class through the format of how we teach and grade is something that's interested me since I started teaching. In Episode 111, Josh and I chat about some of our experiences and thoughts surrounding the messages we send our students and how life doesn't go downhill after high school.

Here is part two of my interview with @cheesemonkeysf where we talk about resourcefulness, those lightbulb moments, and cheesemonkeyef shows her English teacher side.

Enjoy this Bonus Infinite Tangents episode recorded live at a trivia night hosted by Desmos and Mathalicious and MC'd by Dan Meyer at NCTM Denver.
