BEHIND YOUR LESSON
The problem you missed may not be the problem you need to fix.
You can understand one solution and still get stuck on the next. Mapping Our Thoughts has spent years building teaching materials and software that connect the problems you bring to the concepts underneath them.
INTERACTIVE TEACHING EXAMPLE

Choose a problem and where you get stuck. Explore the connections, then try a short practice question.

FROM YOUR WORK TO YOUR LESSON
Find what deserves
your attention.
Bring test problems, an assignment, or practice questions. We look at what they require and where your understanding may be breaking down.
Start with your questions.
Show the problems and what you have tried, including the point where the reasoning becomes uncertain.
Trace the foundations.
Our application analyzes what the questions require and maps them to underlying concepts and prerequisites that may need attention.
Choose relevant materials.
The system connects those needs with explanations, worked examples, and practice developed through years of teaching.
Work through them together.
Your instructor reviews those connections and uses the materials with you to decide what to revisit and practice.
Your instructor makes the teaching decisions.
The system helps inform where to focus. Your attempts, questions, and explanations shape how the materials are used in your lesson.
