About\xa0TenMarks and "With Math I Can"
Developed under the leadership of Amazon Education and TenMarks, \u201cWith Math I Can\u201d challenges the nation\u2019s more than three million teachers and their students to take the pledge to replace the notion of \u201cI\u2019m not good at math\u201d with \u201cI am working to get better at math\u201d by embracing a \u201cgrowth mindset,\u201d the belief that abilities and intelligence can be developed, which leads to an increased focus on the process of learning rather than the outcome. Supporters of the \u201cWith Math I Can\u201d movement include Stanford University Professor of Mathematics Education Jo Boaler, Character Lab, Common Sense Education, National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM), Stanford University\u2019s Project for Education Research that Scales (PERTS), ClassDoJo, ASCD, and Teaching Channel.
