Story
Teachers often find it difficult to implement lessons that help students go beyond rote memorization and repetitive calculations. In fact, institutional norms and habits that permeate all classrooms can actually be enabling "non-thinking" student behavior. Sparked by observing teachers struggle to implement rich mathematics tasks to engage students in deep thinking, Peter Liljedahl has translated his 15 years of research into this practical guide on how to move toward a thinking classroom.

The Writing Revolution (TWR) provides a clear method of instruction that you can use no matter what subject or grade level you teach. The model, also known as The Hochman Method, has demonstrated, over and over, that it can turn weak writers into strong communicators by focusing on specific techniques that match their needs and by providing them with targeted feedback. Insurmountable as the challenges faced by many students may seem, TWR can make a dramatic difference.

Classroom management is traditionally a matter of encouraging good behavior and discouraging bad by doling out rewards and punishments. But studies show that when educators empower students to address and correct misbehavior among themselves, positive results are longer lasting and wider reaching.

Publisher's Summary
Banish math anxiety and give students of all ages a clear roadmap to success!
Mathematical Mindsets provides practical strategies and activities to help teachers and parents show all children, even those who are convinced that they are bad at math, that they can enjoy and succeed in math.
Jo Boaler - Stanford researcher, professor of math education, and expert on math learning - has studied why students don't like math and often fail in math classes. She's followed thousands of students through middle and high schools to study how they learn and to find the most effective ways to unleash the math potential in all students.
There is a clear gap between what research has shown to work in teaching math and what happens in schools and at home. This book bridges that gap by turning research findings into practical activities and advice. Boaler translates Carol Dweck's concept of "mindset" into math teaching and parenting strategies, showing how students can go from self-doubt to strong self-confidence, which is so important to math learning. Boaler reveals the steps that must be taken by schools and parents to improve math education for all.

Not bad but not great.
The author drew conclusions from annecdotal evidence. But she had some solid ideas about changing Math teaching. Worth a read if you are trying to reform or change your teaching practice but is by no means a definitive solution to the system. Just a few nuggets of good ideas that need refinement. Better work out there.

Mind Blown!
I'm a homeschool mom who stumbled upon Jo Boaler on a podcast. I quickly got the audiobook and devoured it! Although the book is written towards teaching in the classroom, most ideas can be applied in the home. I feel like this is going to transform the way I teach math.

Great tool for teachers
I’ve been a Maths and Science tutor for many years, but have just started my teacher training for classroom teaching. This book has given me so many ideas and links to resources, that I’m looking forward to trying during my teaching placement. Very glad I have access to a copy via my University library though as the only down point of this version is the read out urls and the inability to see the referenced pictures.

MUST Read
Every teacher should read this book! I teach 5th grade, but EVERY teacher (and possibly every parent) needs to understand the truths that this book speaks and the mathematical myths it busts. I grew up thinking I was “not a math person.” As an adult I have slowly overcome that closed mindset. This book shows how these limiting beliefs (among many others surrounding math) are so detrimental to our students’ learning.
I highly recommend this book! The narrator is very easy to listen to (I was happy to hear a British accent since that is more authentically like Jo, herself) and the content is energizing and inspiring. I actually bought the paperback version because I wanted to look at all of the information with my eyes after hearing it.
I can’t imagine anyone who would be disappointed for having gained the valuable knowledge this book provides.

As a math coach - everything about this book is YES YES YES! But then the practical side of me says HOW? I’m just one person. But I will do my best to spread the word to change the world! Thanks for reigniting my passion around these beliefs!
