The widespread utility and effectiveness of mathematics come not just from mastering specific skills, topics, and techniques, but more importantly from developing the ways of thinking — the habits of mind — used to create results.
Workshops
In these five-day workshops, participants will engage in an approach to mathematics that centers on developing mathematical Habits of Mind. We welcome those who are interested in content-focused professional development as well as those who are planning to implement CME Project, a new four-year, NSF-funded high school curriculum. Developing Mathematical Habits of Mind—CME Project Workshops are for teachers, coaches, curriculum coordinators, and administrators.
A team of CME Project developers and experienced teachers will lead two workshop sessions:
- Algebraic Habits of Mind
- General Mathematical Habits of Mind
In each workshop, participants will:
- Explore mathematics content using CME Project materials;
- Learn about pedagogical tools and style including mathematical representations, word problems, and skills practice;
- Address issues of implementation, differentiation, and assessment;
- Network with educators from across the country.
