Math Reflections with Dr. E (July 2021)
/in Blog /by egossensAssess, Plan and Teach In my last math reflection, I talked about accelerating learning for students. This month, I’d like to get a little more granular as students will be returning to classes before we know it. July and August are when so many educators are formulating a plan for how to get everyone back […]
Math Reflections with Dr. E (May 2021)
/in Blog /by egossensSummer Programs and Accelerating Learning Ah, the memories of summer! Whether you call it summer school, extended school year, summer academy, summer program, or something else, the learning that happens over the coming months is a critical part of the year. Working with a select group of students in hopes of filling in the blanks […]
Hands-On is Key to Accelerating Learning as Students Return to In-Person Instruction
/in Blog /by egossensIn the early months of the pandemic, the response to the shift to virtual learning was nimble and adaptive.

Math Reflections with Dr. E (April 2021)
/in Blog /by egossensAs I mentioned last month, I often refer to the IES Practice Guides when I’m reviewing best practices. Originally published in April 2009, Assisting Students Struggling with Mathematics: Intervention in the Elementary Grades was updated last month, and I’ve found myself going back to the document several times in recent weeks. IES Practice Guide #26 […]
Math Reflections with Dr. Elliott (March 2021)
/in Blog /by egossensHave you ever found an unexpected treasure? Well, I did this week when I went to pull the IES Practice Guide for Assisting Students Struggling with Mathematics. I routinely refer back to that document for inspiration and corroboration around best practices, so I was thrilled to see the date was no longer April 2009 but […]
Ensuring Equity During Distance Learning
/in Blog /by egossensOver the last two decades, technology has played an increasingly pivotal role in learning. Yet, with nearly one in five students between kindergarten and 12th grade lacking access to computers or speedy internet connection, the sad reality is that inequity surrounding technology exists in our educational landscape. This inequity has been exacerbated during the ongoing […]
Effective Intervention and Remediation Must be Personalized
/in Blog /by egossensEven with talented educators and solid plans, there will always be students who do not fully understand a concept the first time they learn it. Without addressing those gaps in knowledge, students are unable to form the foundation needed for future success. Imagine never mastering counting from one to 10 and being thrust into learning […]
Three Best Practices for Effective Professional Learning
/in Blog /by egossensEducators know it’s not sufficient to treat every student with a “one size fits all” approach to instruction. So why is this how so much of the professional development (PD) for teachers is designed? Where are the instructional strategies, careful planning, and sustained, engaging approaches to teaching and learning that we expect to see in […]

It’s About More than the Benjamins: Financial Literacy Starts with Math
/in Blog /by egossensMoney is an integral part of our everyday lives. From paying for goods and services to managing a personal budget, knowing how to think about money is something many of us take for granted. But the concept of financial literacy is much more complex, especially when it comes to making smart decisions. In many ways, […]
