Thursday I had the honor of providing the opening keynote for the AMATYC Conference in Denver, “Learning Math is Not a Spectator Sport.” I expect the video of the talk will be available to share next week, and rather than provide the slides (124 mostly stick-figure drawings), I’ll point you to some resources that will likely give you the information you’re looking for between now and when the full presentation becomes available.

We covered three main themes:

  1. Interaction & Impasse (this post)
  2. Challenge & Curiosity
  3. Durable Learning

I’ll provide resources for each of these categories, starting with Interaction and Impasse, in this post.
