Here is an unknown Mathematics teacher. What is so special about him?
He doesn't know how to curb his enthusiasm.
Our education leaders have to come to terms with the construction of environments where teachers and students experience excitement and insight.
The repression of experimentation has been documented, not just for Mathematics, where Principals wince when asked about having them , but even for science, where abstract,mindless notetaking abounds.
Experimentation does not mean disorder. Plans for securing and maintaining assets must be in place. Therein lies the opportunity for stone-faced rigour.
The demands on management are not schizoid. Its called "flexible rigidity".
