Beyond The Answer: How to Elicit Student Thinking in Math

Beyond The Answer: How to Elicit Student Thinking in Math

In this episode of Math Universally Speaking, host Ron Martiello explores how educators can move beyond the myth of answer-getting and design math classrooms that value reasoning, reflection, and resilience. Drawing from Principles to Actions (NCTM, 2014) and his co-authored book Conquering Math Myths with Universal Design, Ron shares practical ways to elicit and use evidence of student thinking—a key practice that builds understanding and prepares students for future learning.

Learn how to:

  • Ask purposeful questions that stretch mathematical reasoning

  • Use evidence, not just data, to guide instructional decisions

  • Help students reflect on process, not just precision

  • Turn assessments into opportunities for growth

Discover how shifting from answers to thinking transforms classroom culture, strengthens students’ confidence, and supports inclusive, high-quality math instruction.
