NOTES

"[A] guide to finding joy and understanding by adopting a diverse approach to learning math ... Stanford researcher, mathematics education professor, and the leading expert on math learning Dr. Jo Boaler argues that our differences are the key to unlocking our greatest mathematics potential ... Boaler shares ... neuroscientific research on how embracing the concept of 'math-ish'--a theory of mathematics as it exists in the real world--changes the way we think about mathematics, data, and ourselves. [She argues that] when we can see the value of diversity among people and multi-faceted approaches to learning math, we are free to truly flourish"--Provided by publisher
