What’s going on here? Can the research literature help us understand why students have so much trouble with worded problems, and is there anything we can do about it as teachers? We try to get to the bottom of this in the final episode of Season 1 of The Pedagogue-cast. 

We hear the hilarious (and horror) stories from teachers about students misinterpreting worded problems, and also look into problem-solving, reasoning, and transfer...
