Does higher education need to prepare for students who may be suffering from the math shark? Is education for pre-service teachers being modified to account for the math shark? Do we need a bigger boat to confront this issue, or is the math shark really just a guy in scuba gear with a fake fin on his back? Rob and Ryan chat with Dr. Terri Bucci (Associate Professor and Researcher in Mathematics Education at The Ohio State University) about the state of math education and how it can be approached differently to help students.
