Episode 01: "I Love the Quadratic Formula!" (Digital Coach Corner)

Only Connect: Stories from the DPS MyTech Digital Coaches

The first ever episode of the Denver Public Schools’ MyTech Digital Coach Podcast! Join hosts Steve Holz-Russell and Mattea Garcia as they discuss Mattea’s work with two math teachers at North High School. “I’m not good at math.” You can hear this a lot from students in high school math classes. There are a lot of formulas and a lot of processes to learn, and the steps can be hard to follow. Enter two innovative math teachers at North High School, Megan Fischbach and Anna Holm, who’ve figured out a way to lower students’ defenses by leveraging technology to teach tricky subjects, even the Quadratic Formula!
