Video Games & Making Math More Like Things Students Like • Presenter: Dan Meyer http://blog.mrmeyer.com/ • Six “Lessons”: • Video games get to the point. • The real-world is overrated. • Video games have an open middle. • In video games, the middle becomes more interesting & challenging at the same time. • Instructions are visual, embedded in the practice, and only as needed. • Video games lower the cost of failure.*
How the Brain Works & Rethinking the Structure of Math Class • Presenter: Carolyn Williamson • What we remember: • We remember BEST that which comes FIRST. • We remember SECOND BEST that which comes LAST. • We remember least that which comes JUST PAST THE MIDDLE.
