CHAPTER

Teaching Math: Importance of Explicit Instruction

In this chapter, the speakers discuss the flaws in teaching math using multiple methods on one page in textbooks. They explain the importance of explicit teaching, where the teacher demonstrates a problem and immediately gets the students to do the same problem with different surface features. They gradually progress from guided practice to independent problem-solving, aiming to equip the students with the skills necessary to solve complex problems they haven't encountered before.
