Description: Learn about Nearpod, an interactive platform that provides opportunities for teaching and learning mathematics in a fun interactive way, with embedded explorations, simulations, formative assessment, and many more features in live and self-paced settings.
Description: In this hands-on workshop, participants will engage in several rich problems selected from the areas of number and operations, algebra, geometry, pre-calculus, calculus and discrete mathematics. Each of the problems will address a number of the Eight Standards For Mathematical 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: This presentation will provide an overview of the mathematical questions that arise in decisions about the census, apportionment, redistricting, who gets to vote, how the vote takes place, how the votes are counted, and how the votes are tabulated.
