Overview

*This course is strongly recommended prior to participation in the Math Session at the ACLS CCR Standards Conference in November. *

This series introduces the eight mathematical practices described in the CCR Standards for Math. Participants will consider ways to engage students in each of the mathematical practices. The challenge of working through problems in the assignments will encourage participants to consider the perspectives of both learner and teacher, forming the basis for rich group discussion of strategy and practices. Discussion will take place during the webinar meetings using the live chat box and polls. No prior knowledge of the practices and CCR Standards required.

Description

This series runs over a 4-week period and is composed of two internet-based assignments (to be completed independently in Weeks 1 & 3) and two live webinars (Weeks 2 & 4). Participants must commit to all four parts. This series (independent work and webinars together) will take about 6-7 hours total to complete.
