DESCRIPTION:
This course is designed to help teachers gain a deep understanding of the concept of function and the algebra and geometry concepts taught in the middle-level (through early high school) curriculum. Studying this content at a deeper level will help teachers better prepare their students for the NeSA-M. Participants also will study measurement with an emphasis on length, area and volume. Functions, Algebra and Geometry is the second course in the Math in the Middle curriculum and has been successfully taught to both elementary and high school teachers. Middle-level mathematics teachers (grades 6-8) should find the course both accessible and useful, and it is not necessary to have previous experience with MATH 800T. Grade 5 teachers who have completed MATH 800T should also find the course accessible and useful.
Math 802T is not open to teachers who have completed Math 810T or Math 811T.
The online section of this course does not qualify for the 20% tuition discount.
All NMSSI participants will be provided a free lunch (except for online).
