8:00 - 9:00 Session 116 3rd - College 104A
Numerical Sequences and Polynomials

Look at various numerical sequences as a representation of polynomials. Examine
sequences without the need of algebraic representations. Also, we will talk about how
the learning of sequences in elementary school can benefit students in understanding
algebra and mathematical modeling in higher grade levels.

Using ALEKS to Target Instruction, Build student Ownership

and Reflection, & to Support Personalized Learning

Participants will take a deep dive in the reliable data and reports within ALEKS. Take
the heavy lift off of the instructor by providing rich reliable data that supports 1:1 student
conferencing, goal setting, station rotation, and promotes student agency, motivation,
relevance, and self-direction.
