TARGET AUDIENCE: Grades 9-12 Teachers
TEAC 892: Integrating Mathematics Learning and Teaching
DATES/LOCATIONS: June 1-5 and 8-12, 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. (Class # 8681), Lincoln.
INSTRUCTOR: Pat Janike, LPS
This course will focus on the learning and teaching of functions and other key ideas in the ideas in the high school curriculum from algebra to introductory calculus. The goal is to explicitly apply the advanced mathematics learned to the improvement of classroom instruction. The course employs a variety of technologies in a modified Lesson Study design that repeatedly cycles through (1) the learning of a concept, (2) the development of an exemplary classroom lesson about the concept, and (3) the improvement of the lesson through reflection. May be taken concurrently with MATH 811T.
