Why Americans Hate Math - and What to Do About It

Robert Barnett, Modern Classrooms Project co-founder, shares the research behind the model that is moving the needle on student achievement and changing their relationship to math in his recent TED talk.

In this country, almost two out of three 4th graders are already behind in math. And this problem compounds, year over year. Many educators have witnessed this phenomenon firsthand, but far fewer have found a solution that makes a difference.

But the Modern Classrooms Project is working to change that reality. Educators who use this model have found improved performance on standardized tests, have witnessed increased student engagement, and have personally experienced feelings of greater efficacy and sustainability in their jobs.
