• Accessing EL Support: Learn about the support that EL Education will provide during this transition, including professional development opportunities

Discover how to harness the power of AI to transform the math teaching experience. From lesson planning to grading, technology can save time on daily tasks while keeping classroom standards high, ensuring every student has the opportunity to thrive. In this session, participants will learn best practices for teaching with tech and listen to the experience of a district already integrating digital technology to elevate their instruction, build community, and meet students where they are.

Calling all math teachers! Time to Open Up the technology tools and use them to explore the curriculum and make a meaningful and lasting impact. We'll go through activities integrating technology and discuss the ways to enhance engagement, improve comprehension, and gain greater student confidence in mathematics.

Calculators will be available for use, and we'll integrate their emulators along with the math software.

We will engage in the mathematics of the lesson, Something To Talk About (What does it mean to be quadratic?). We will consider the features that make the lesson accessible for students and fundamental for understanding quadratic functions. After doing mathematics together we will share our insights from implementation in my own classroom and our observations of others.

For beginners and advanced; middle school and high school; scientific calculators, graphers, and their free emulators.  Get some great tips & hints on using the technology integrated with the Open Up Resources curriculum.  Leave with your questions answered along with how to’s and best practices.
