Abstract

The main goal of our Math Teachers’ Circle at Loyola University Chicago is to engage teachers in open-ended, interesting problem solving. In this article, I will talk about the problems I use to introduce what that means. I’ve used these a number of times with teachers, pre-service teachers, math majors, and even professors.
