In this episode we discuss one of my favorite teaching practices--that's the Modern Classroom Model, which consists of three big concepts: blended learning, self-pacing and mastery-based assessment. As a mentor, I work with teachers worldwide to bring this model to their classroom and today we're just scratching the surface on what the model is and why it's awesome for math class.

Today's Topics:

1. What is The Modern Classroom Model?
   • Blending Tradition with Technology
   • Personalized Learning Paths + Self Pacing
   • Mastery Based Assessment
   • The changing role of the teacher
2. Why Choose The Modern Classroom for Math?

   • How it works out in my classroom
