Making the Most of Misconceptions: The Mistakes That Build Mathematicians

Researchers and mathematicians have shown that learning from mistakes is part of the process of mastering mathematics. The components of a Eureka lesson identify these misconceptions using problem sets, student debriefs, and exit tickets. Participants will develop a toolkit of strategies to foster those teachable moments.
