We will kick-off our STEM series with this FREE pre-conference Session,
September 29th, 2021, 3:30-5:00 p.m. Zoom webinar followed by Q & A
Technology integration? In a math classroom? Yes, it’s completely possible! Come learn (and create!) with us on how technology can help provide an academically safe environment for mathematics teaching and learning across grade levels and math concepts — environments where students feel secure and confident in engaging with one another, their teachers, and math!
Teachers will...
Build knowledge of the intersectionality of mathematics, technology, and inclusivity
Build capacity to use technology in mathematical practice
Analyze opportunities to collaborate on math curriculum and 21st century math tasks
Explore opportunities to promote collaborative discussion around student work, formative assessment, and activities
