ROUNDING UP: SEASON 4 | EPISODE 19

Educational theorist Charles De Garmo once said, "To question well is to teach well. In the skillful use of the question, more than anything else, lies the fine art of teaching." 

In this re-release of an episode from Season 1, our guest is Dr. DeAnn Huinker, one of the coauthors of Taking Action: Implementing Effective Mathematics Teaching Practices in Grades K-5. We'll talk with DeAnn about the art and the science of questioning and ways that teachers can maximize the impact of their questions on student learning.
