How to Faciliate Effective Mathematical Discourse in the Classroom
In this session, attendees will learn how to model and facilitate mathematical
discourse with their students using research-based discourse protocols. Learners will
understand how to use mathematical tasks across different grade levels that engage
students in using the mathematical practices/processes that are woven throughout
our standards. The overarching goal for this session is to make sure that we, as
educators, are molding our students into problem solvers, and not problem
performers.
