REBELS & RISK TAKERS

by Carnegie Learning

This podcast challenges the long-standing norm of a "rows and columns" math classroom where teachers “stand and show” and students “sit and copy”. We feature REAL stories from REAL math rebels and risk-takers who are flipping the math classroom on its head to create an engaging new space where all students have the opportunity to develop into creative problem solvers, critical thinkers, courageous communicators, and life-long learners.
