| Description | | This series of professional learning will support educators in advancing their own instructional skill set in the area of math. Elementary & secondary teachers will see best practices in action and will learn strategies to support math instruction. Any teachers interested in enhancing their instructional skills in the teaching of math and increasing engagement of all students, this series is for you!
School districts which have a math school improvement goal and/or are developing a multi-tiered system of supports in math will benefit by attending as a cohort of educators. Administrators are encouraged to attend to better understand ways to support classroom teachers.
Participants in this series will be part of a Professional Learning Network of educators working collaboratively to support each other, share ideas and resources, and learn from colleagues. The series will include 3 workshops at ESU 10. The workshops are as follows:
October 6th, 2017 Mathematics Curriculum and Assessment for Student Success
The mathematics classroom is driven by the interaction of three components: teaching, curriculum, and assessment. In this workshop, we will examine the roles of curriculum (including choices a school or teacher makes in terms of scope of content, sequencing of topics, and lesson choices) and assessment (how a teacher measures student progress and uses it for planning) and how decisions on these components affect the teaching and learning process. Examples will include discussion of how tools and technology can be used effectively in mathematics lessons and how choices made by educators can affect access and equity in the secondary mathematics classroom.
This workshop will be lead by Daniel Brahier Professor of Mathematics Education at the School of Teaching and Learning at Bowling Green State University and still teaches 8th grade algebra. He is the one of the authors of Principles to Action: Ensuring Mathematical Success for All that was released by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics.
January 24th, 2018 Teaching Conceptually - Taking the "Magic" Out of the Math
This presentation will help (K-12) teachers discover how to make strong mathematical connections in order to allow all children to experience and enjoy the reasoning behind mathematics. Often our students, as well as many adults, have developed the procedural knowledge needed to produce to the "right" answer without any true understanding of how or why a procedure really worked. We must ensure that students start to demystify and conceptualize mathematics. This is the first step in ensuring effective interventions. This presentation will focus on Tier Two integration of the MTSS model while layering on Tier 1 conceptual understanding. Dr. Chris Cain's presentation will focus on the how to ensure the ability of the students to understand number through research-supported instruction such as Subitizing, analog models, and deep personal connections. This presentation will enable teachers to begin to understand what it means to differentiate on multiple levels "going deep, not wide". Teachers will gain information that will allow you to develop strong Number Sense in each student that will engage the students to make sense of the mathematics no matter what idea(s) (subtraction, multiplication, fractions, or Y=MX+B) are part of the instruction.
Dr. Cain is an Associate Professor in the Education department at Mars Hill University where he holds the positions of coordinator of the M.Ed. Programs, Integrated Education Program and the Unit Assessment Coordinator.
February 27th, 2018 7-12 Math Professional Learning Network
Participants in this series will be part of a Professional Learning Network of educators working collaboratively to support each other, share ideas and resources, and learn from colleagues. ESU 10 will share research-supported classroom assessment practices that improve student motivation and achievement. You will also hear some tips to incorporate blended learning in your math classroom to enhance your instructional routine.
Throughout the series Schoology will be utilized to share ideas and resources, ask questions, and host a segment of Hints, Tips, & Tricks: instructional strategies, problem solving, technology, research, engagement... |
