💡 THOUGHT

YES, YOU CAN TEACH YOUR KIDS

"An alarming number of parents appear to have little confidence in their ability to "teach" their children. We should help parents understand the overriding importance of incidental teaching in the context of warm, consistent companionship. Such caring is usually the greatest teaching, especially if caring means sharing in the activities of the home.”

Raymond S. Moore

Your children don't need a perfect teacher. They need a present parent who includes them in their daily activities.

📊 TREND

FROM AGE OF EMPIRES TO EDTECH

Here’s a contrarian take that video games might help prepare kids for certain complex, real-world problem-solving:

We checked with OpenEd’s talented and accomplished Head of Product, Dave Wasmer, who didn’t take an official position on the matter but had this to say:

"I swear I remember more about ancient history from Age of Empires than any class I ever took."

🔨 TOOL

MATH WITHOUT FEAR

"Math is not my strong suit. It's where I struggled most in school."

Sound familiar? You're not alone.
