It’s officially been one year of The Educators MathCast! To celebrate, Zak and Mike look back at some of their favorite memories from the first year of the podcast before turning their attention to a new school year. This time, they’re thinking beyond the first days of school and asking a bigger question: Six weeks from now, what do we want students to believe about mathematics and about themselves as mathematicians? And what can we do right now to help build those beliefs? Join us as we celebrate one year of the MathCast and think together about the math classrooms we want to create in the year ahead.
