Moving to a Math culture
Changing beliefs from a focus on ability to a focus on
effort increases engagement in mathematics learning,
improves mathematics outcomes
“… there are people who always say that there are math
people and there are not math people. What if that is
all an illusion? What if there were no such thing as
math people or not math people? But there is a group
of people that had enough practice with the core of
number and operations and the command of it and
the quantities that measure and those other things
…so that door opens? ”
