Today we're talking Memoria Press Math. Shane sits down with Paul, Tom, and Martin to discuss how we teach math in the classroom using the Memoria Press curriculum.  Mathematics is a core component of a healthy classical education. Our foundations here at Memoria Press around math is grounded in the teaching of Plato, Descartes, and classical philosophers and educators from a wide swath of history.  Developing a central philosophy has been instrumental in formulating our strategies to teaching math in the classroom. Understanding the nature of math and its significance in our world is key in the education of young minds.

How do we push the bounds of our own understanding? How do we make constant strides in teaching and education to cultivate our method, pedagogy, and educator's philosophy? Today on the show, Shane sits down to talk about the advantages, disadvantages, the imperative and demand for teacher's to cultivate a healthy philosophy of teaching. Today, the panel will discuss examples in historical learning and lecture, take a look at proofs from history, and show how each of them have cultivated a healthy perspective in the field of teaching classical Christian education. A philosophy involves making a personal statement to truth, goodness, and beauty. A statement that we at Memoria Press charge each of our teachers to make to their students and families. --- [CETC: 123 | Micah Moore, Tom Sculthorpe, Mitchell Holley ] ---
