Show Notes:

In Episode 77, Megan interviews Maxim Vickerie and Adam Smith from EF+Math, a program supported by the nonprofit AERDF.

Megan recently learned about a report that came from this group called Strengthening Executive function Skills to improve Mathematics learning: Evidence of Promise from EF+Math’s inclusive R&D approach.

EF+ Math aims to double the number of black and Latinx students and students experiencing poverty in grades 3-8 who are proficient in math by building innovative math learning systems that strengthen executive function skills. To meet this aim, they fund and support teams of educators, researchers, and product developers. The teams collaborate through an Inclusive Research and Development approach (R&D), and work to co-create ways to improve math learning through increasing executive functioning skills.
