Description: Teacher's will be working on virtual labs of their choice in social constructivist groups to see how NJCTL integrates hands-on virtual labs in mathematics to promote understanding through discovery. They will have fun along the way! www.njctl.org
Description: In this session, teachers and coaches will participate in activities that build a teacher's toolbox of engagement strategies. Participants will learn about and experience strategies to engage students in a variety of mathematical practices. Walk away with specific structures that you can immediately implement in your daily practice!
Description: Earlier research uncovers a multitude of “in the in-the-moment” motivating desires that accompany mathematical problem solving. These motivating desires evoke differing patterns of engagement and social interaction. In this presentation, we share our most current data (survey, individual interview, and focus group techniques) involving prospective K-6 teachers’ motivating desires as they work in groups […]
Description: Effective teaching of mathematics facilitates discourse among students to build shared understanding of mathematical ideas by analyzing and comparing student approaches and arguments (NCTM Teaching Practice). This session will examine mathematical tasks that focus on procedures with connections and doing mathematics. Tasks that have high-cognitive demand are complex enough to give students something to […]
Description: You know to use “wait time" after you ask a question of your class, yet there are many other times to “wait” in the learning of math. See how a few adjustments to your curriculum, instructional routines, and assessment practices can work to increase your students’ confidence, contributions, and creativity.
Description: Participants will explore a multi-dimensional approach to teaching math in general and special education classes. Participants will leave the session with tools and strategies that will encourage student self-discovery.
Description: Show students real-world applications for their emerging math skills and connections to other disciplines with hands-on activities that use data sets on wildlife habitat, land and water use, population […]
Description: Do your students struggle to engage in mathematical discussions? Instructional routines provide teachers and students with well-defined structures that support students’ shared sense-making. In this interactive workshop we will […]
