Here is the link  to the video <a href=\"www.ted.com\/talks\/dan_meyer_math_curriculum_makeover.html\">http:\/\/www.ted.com\/talks\/dan_meyer_math_curriculum_makeover.html<\/a><br \/>\n I highly recommend watching it because Dan talks about something he calls &#8220;patient problem solving&#8221; which unfortunately, he claims that today&#8217;s textbooks and curricula do not teach towards.  After you watch this, I&#8217;d love to hear from people to start a discussion of what they think of his thoughts.  In many ways what he&#8217;s talking about in rewriting the problems from textbooks (or writing your own) is basically what my colleagues and I have done, but not as technologically savvy as he has become.  The goals, however, are the same.  To not be as &#8220;cookie-cutter&#8221; with how we teach problem solving in mathematics.  I&#8217;d actually love to see him in action sometime.<\/p>\n<p>As the year winds down, I am getting geared up for the PEA conference and looking at my class evaluations from my geometry course.  Summarizing student thoughts are always the way that I look at ways to improve this course for the fall.  I would be happy to share all of that with you this summer.  Talk to you soon!
