Curiosity in the Classroom with Alison Clark-Wilson
This week, we explore the role of curiosity in the classroom.
In this episode, we are joined by Alison Clark-Wilson @AliClarkWilson to discuss fostering an environment where students feel encouraged to ask “why” and building diverse, engaging lessons. Topics include using calculators as investigative tools, the concept of a “wall of unanswered questions” to value inquiries beyond the curriculum, and creating space for curiosity to thrive. We also touch on graphing tools like Autograph, Desmos, and GeoGebra to enhance learning. This episode highlights practical strategies for cultivating curiosity-driven learning environments.
