As the Mark Twain of education writing, this collection of essays chronicles Barry Garelick's experiences at two schools, teaching math.
"Tell the administration what they want to hear, then do what is best for your students."
That's Barry Garelick's philosophy in a nutshell.
As the Mark Twain of education writing, this collection of essays chronicles Garelick's experiences at two schools, teaching math.
With essays such as, Not Making Sense, and a Conversation I Never Had; "Math Talk", Stalin's Hemorrhoids, and Murder of Crows; and The Parole Officer's Check List, the Dialectic of Competition, and Gnarly Problems, Garelick gives the reader a glimpse into the daily routines of math taught in a verite style and exposes a lot of the edu-crap that teachers hear they are supposed to do, and feel guilty about when they teach in the way they see fit.
