Dr. Matthew Beyranevand is the K-12 Mathematics and Science Coordinator for the Chelmsford Public Schools. Through his website (Math with Matthew), Matthew provides visitors with podcasts, music videos, educational resources, and a video blog. Matthew is currently an active user of Twitter, Facebook, Periscope, and Instagram to get his message out to help improve student interest and engagement in mathematics.
I came across his website when looking I was looking for content to post for a previous discussion and felt that his site would be an excellent resource to share with everyone. I originally was on his site listening to his podcasts about strategies for stronger student engagement but it doesn't end there. There are a number of useful videos that could be used as a hook in classes ranging from elementary school to high school. From what I've seen, he is active with his blog posts (May 18, 2016), his videos (latest April 3 2016), and is a member/supporter of the Global Math Project. If that was not enough, Matthew is currently in his fourth season producing and hosting his public access television show "Math with Matthew" and recently completed a 16-month project for a pilot project of a "Bill Nye the Science Guy" style show featuring the Pythagorean theorem.
It's hard not to get motivated by this guy. I hope you enjoy his stuff as much as I did!
