2004 Institutes:
Numbers & Operations
June 7-18, 2004; plus four follow-up meetings in Fall 2004.
Instructors: Jeff Farmer, UNC, Diane Mickelson, Jeffco, Barbara Bath, CSM
Comments from participants:
- "I have started to give more open-ended problems that look at multiple solutions, while still getting the students to discover the math concepts."
- "By actually having the teachers put the methods into practice, we were able to see and prove to ourselves the value of what we were learning. This class has taught me a better way to teach and view mathematics. This is a very valuable tool for me to teach my students."
- "Unlike many classes, this had an excellent balance of process and mathematics. I learned a lot about myself and a lot about how I can tie learning back to my students."
