Hot Seat #9 - Memorize or From Memory?
Send us a text Today we’re diving into one of the most talked-about—and often misunderstood—topics in math education: memorization vs from-memory thinking. At first glance, they might sound like the same thing. But dig a little deeper, and you’ll find a growing divide among educators, researchers, and even students. Should we be drilling multiplication tables and formulas until they’re automatic? Or should we be building understanding without having to “memorize” in the traditional sens...

She will debate our Hot Seat resolution: Math is a Gatekeeper You can follow Just Equations on LinkedIn, BlueSky, and Instagram.You can read mor...
