Last Friday José Bowen led two engaging sessions- a keynote speech at UM-Dearborn and a workshop at Henry Ford College. Several people have asked whether we can get more copies of the hand outs or more information.
For more information the best place to go is to the website teaching naked. The Borrow and the Buzz tabs include information you may wish to read, watch, or share. Some of the other tabs promote Dr. Bowen’s business.
If you are after handouts, like those from our workshop, then follow this direct link to the handout page.
Are you already using some techniques, or tips from the sessions? Let us know in the comments.
The sessions reminded me to give a task, or something to think about along with a reading assignment to help focus a learner. I have already added that to one guided practice activity in my Math for the Modern World class.
I will also try starting some of my lessons with a non-threatening discussion before we get to the interesting math problem to solve to see if that keeps engagement better with the problem.
