Traditional Math : An effective strategy that teachers feel guilty using

From the foreword by Paul A. Kirschner, Emeritus Professor of Educational Psychology - Open University of the Netherlands; Guest Professor - Thomas More University of Applied Sciences

"This book will, hopefully, provide an arsenal of tools and techniques to break through this downward spiral in teaching and learning math. First off, it breaks through the myth and straw man that explicit instruction is just boring chalk-and-talk rote learning of facts that cannot be applied when needed. It also breaks with the misrepresentation that traditional math teaches kids to work as automatons without understanding what they do."
