In this special episode of Math Universally Speaking, host Ron Martiello sits down with co-author Dr. Jenna Rufo to reflect on their collaboration on Conquering Math Myths with Universal Design. Together, they unpack the inspiration behind the book, share personal stories from the field, and explore how Universal Design for Learning (UDL) can transform math instruction for all students. It's a candid, thoughtful conversation about equity, inclusion, and the power of high expectations.
Join Ron and Jenna as they challenge assumptions, celebrate progress, and invite you to be part of the movement to reimagine math instruction.
