Episode 6.1: Math, M-A-T-H, Math plus Adult Learning with Peter Carpenter

Spelling “tuberculosis” on the spot is one thing, but designing learning that actually changes what adults do is a whole different challenge. We start season six on Scripps Spelling Bee Day with a fast, funny spelling run and then we’re joined by Peter Carpenter, a longtime public educator turned coach, principal, and district leader, to talk about adult learning theory and what strong professional development design really requires.  We also hear our final post from Jessie in Astoria, Oregon, reflecting on end-of-year realities and the practical Building Thinking Classroom “micro changes” that made a difference: random daily groups, more whiteboard thinking, bell ringers instead of homework, better note-taking routines, and more intentional assessment design. Subscribe for part two with Peter, share this with a colleague who plans PD, and leave a review with the one adult-learning move you wish every workshop leader would use.Send Joel and Misty a message!The More Math for More People Podcast is produced by CPM Educational Program.
