Episode details

Ollie Lovell is a maths and sceince teacher from Australia, an author, and my longtime, bitter podcasting rival. We have decided to get together once a month to share three things we have each learned and get the other’s take on it.

This episode we discussed the following 6 ideas:

1. The crucial role of curriculum
2. No hints before a check for understanding
3. Diagnosis in coaching
4. The Tick Trick
5. The power of a slideshow for teaching mathematics
6. How to get better sleep
