Salcito’s “Daily Edventures” features our Prof. Ed Burger, “considered by many to be the nation’s leader in math education. … Burger’s fast-paced review of all of calculus (“Calculus in 20 minutes”) on YouTube has had more than one million viewers.”

Burger has a new piece in Inside Higher Ed on “Teaching to Fail” about teaching students how to take risks and value and learn from their mistakes.
