Math-ish by Jo Boaler

We will be discussing the entirety of Math-ish by Jo Boaler in the Winter Garden at the Harold Washington Library Center. From the book's description: Mathematics is a fundamental part of life, yet every one of us has a unique relationship with learning and understanding the subject. Working with numbers may inspire confidence in our abilities or provoke math anxiety and trepidation. Stanford researcher, mathematics education professor, and the leading expert on math learning Dr. Jo Boaler argues that our differences are the key to unlocking our greatest mathematics potential. Featured Review: "This book repeatedly made me want to jump up and down with excitement, cheer out loud, and revise and enrich all my teaching materials inspired by Prof Boaler's compelling, evidence-based, highly practicable methods. I wish every educator, student, parent, and policy-maker would read it." - Dr. Eugenia Cheng, Mathematician, author, Scientist In Residence: School of the Art Institute of Chicago
