Learning and Loving Math:
Strategies for Deepening Math Instruction
Elizabeth Weiss, Teacher and Two Rivers Learning Institute Faculty Member
Jeff Heyck-Williams, Director of the Two Rivers Learning Institute and Faculty Member
This virtual course focuses on the structures for supporting a culture of student-centered, inquiry-based mathematics across classrooms. Specifically, we will explore how to teach through problem-based tasks, how to pose open-ended questions, how to draw out and respond to student thinking, and how to develop a classroom culture that encourages students to grapple with mathematics. Participants develop the skills for designing and implementing mathematics instruction that addresses conceptual understanding, problem-solving, and mathematical mindsets, in addition to fluency.
This course will meet from 7:00 PM to 8:30PM EST on Tuesdays on the following dates:
January 18, February 1, February 15, March 1, March 15
Cost: $200 ($175 per person if registering two or more people from the same institution)
