Magazine
An online magazine focusing on Math education
M Magazine‘s in-depth feature articles, teaching strategies, instructional videos, webinars, opportunities for collaboration, and other exciting components help math educators and school leaders navigate the challenges facing them today. M Magazine will keep you inspired and knowledgeable about best practices in math to excite your students and help them thrive.
This has been an interesting time for all of us. Before we started M Magazine in 2021, one of the things I missed most was the opportunity to travel to different parts of the country to talk to teachers and see what I could do to help them in the area of mathematics education. So, I approached Rubicon, the group that brought you MathUP, and together we decided to launch an online mathematics education magazine for teachers that I thought would serve our needs—my need to interact with you, and your need for on-the-spot, at-your-leisure information.
