This is the thing I've felt is missing from math -- a sense of curiosity. Not just an "is this right?" or "Did you follow the steps correctly?" but getting to the puzzle behind it ... Toiling in the process and figuring it out. Inquiry in math is a fantastic concept!

Vibe Coding: It's Amazing What You Can Create sketch notes

Jen Giffen sketched these notes while watching my #DitchSummit session with Greg Bagby and Matt Miller. We talked about coding with AI. You don't need to know how to code, you just need to be able to communicate your idea to a chatbot.
