When Students Ask their School Board to Keep Using GMM with Christa Oeder & Erika Hale

November 11, 2020 • Josh Britton and Derek Maxson • Season 3 • Episode 7

In this episode of the Get More Math podcast, Josh is joined by two math teachers from Daniel Boone High School in Gray, Tennessee. Listen as both teachers explain how they have adjusted to the difficulties of remote teaching and how their students advocated for GMM, even going so far as to write letters to the board to ensure they’d get to continue using the program.
