The best way to gauge others’ values isn’t to ask them directly. It’s to see who they respect. Shallow people are impressed by superficiality. They look up to beauty, fame, money & power. Deep people are drawn to substance. They admire wisdom, kindness, creativity & integrity.

We've put teachers in a super tricky place - expecting them to be both expert curriculum creators and expert teachers at the same time. How do we win that game? #MTBoS #ITeachMath #MathIsFigureOutAble citation: pubs.nctm.org/view/journals/…
