Summary

Rammed full of practical ideas – all of which are beautifully articulated and backed by research – this is a truly wonderful book。
-Craig Barton , Author of How I Wish I'd Taught Maths

I can’t recommend highly enough this very do-able and high-leverage approach to any math teacher or curriculum developer who wants to level up their task design, or just try out something new。
-Kate Nowak , Former high school math teacher and currently Vice President of Product Strategy for Illustrative Mathematics

A quick summary of using examples in class to teach。 Even though this is a short book all of the key points could have been summed up in an article and not cost £12。 The ideas themselves are good, nothing particularly ground breaking if you are up to date with current thinking in maths education (in the uk at least)。 Useful for maths teachers as a tool to reflect on how they do things, although many may say they apply these principles I would suggest that most would do so very superficially and A quick summary of using examples in class to teach。 Even though this is a short book all of the key points could have been summed up in an article and not cost £12。 The ideas themselves are good, nothing particularly ground breaking if you are up to date with current thinking in maths education (in the uk at least)。 Useful for maths teachers as a tool to reflect on how they do things, although many may say they apply these principles I would suggest that most would do so very superficially and would miss the key features of the good practice described here。 In summary a clear and purposeful description of how examples can be used。 I was expecting more discussion on which examples to choose (a topic I don’t see much literature on at the moment) but that could be because I didn’t read the blurb carefully enough。 。。。more

Best math ed book I've read in a while! This book was filled with discussions about practices I've already adopted in my classroom -- and the research to support or discourage them -- and also many new ideas and techniques I'm excited to try。 Chapters 5 and 8 were particularly excellent。 I really think every high school math educator would benefit from reading this!

I’ve been teaching maths at secondary school in the UK for 7 years and the feeling I have after reading this book is that of excitement。 Not since Craig Barton’s how I wish I’d taught maths have I felt this way, while Craig’s book covers such a broad spectrum of teaching pedagogy, this focuses specifically on how Michael has used worked examples in his classroom。 I feel that most of my lessons may see some future benefit from many aspects of this book。 He has weaved a collection of pedagogical r I’ve been teaching maths at secondary school in the UK for 7 years and the feeling I have after reading this book is that of excitement。 Not since Craig Barton’s how I wish I’d taught maths have I felt this way, while Craig’s book covers such a broad spectrum of teaching pedagogy, this focuses specifically on how Michael has used worked examples in his classroom。 I feel that most of my lessons may see some future benefit from many aspects of this book。 He has weaved a collection of pedagogical research into a little book of golden nuggets applicable to any classroom。 My bow has another string。 。。。more
