👉 Cornell Math, often referred to as the "Cornell Model," is an educational framework designed to enhance mathematical thinking and problem-solving skills. Developed by Jerome Bruner, it emphasizes understanding mathematical concepts rather than rote memorization. The model is structured around three main components: the "What" (the problem statement), the "How" (the process of solving the problem), and the "Why" (the underlying mathematical principles and connections). This approach encourages students to engage deeply with the material, fostering critical thinking, logical reasoning, and the ability to generalize concepts across different contexts. By breaking down problems into manageable parts and focusing on the relationships between them, Cornell Math aims to build a robust foundation in mathematics that extends beyond mere procedural fluency.
