2023 Workshop Talk | 54:33 | Math

Summary


What makes students’ experience of math classical? What makes it Christian? This presentation will be structured around the Regents School of Austin mathematics department philosophy of math education. A number of years and a number of voices have contributed to writing and refining this document that shapes our mathematics program as distinctly classical and distinctly Christian. Several influential texts, their connection to teaching math classically and Christianly, and how they are implemented in the Regents curriculum will be shared.
