Big Ideas Learning was founded by renowned math textbook author, Dr. Ron Larson. After seeing success from his writing style at both the college and high school level, Ron recognized the need to expand his philosophy into the elementary and middle school markets. In 2008, Ron collaborated with Dr. Laurie Boswell, a passionate mathematics educator, and experienced author, to develop a fresh and inn
ovative instructional program that offers a highly focused, coherent, and rigorous mathematics curriculum. Together, Ron and Laurie serve as the single authorship team of the Big Ideas Math program, creating one voice for students, teachers, and parents from Kindergarten through Algebra 2. Ron and Laurie use the latest in educational research, along with a body of knowledge collected from expert mathematics instructors, to develop their programs. The instructional design guides students to take control of their learning—from surface-level to deep-level—and encourages them to transfer these skills to real-life situations. From the instructional design to flexible technology, these programs are intentionally created to inspire confidence in both teachers and students to achieve success in math. Big Ideas Learning partnered with National Geographic Learning in 2017 to be the sole distributor of the Big Ideas Math programs.
