Mathematics

  • Algebra in Middle Level Mathematics Teaching

Lesson Study

Lesson study is a component of all the summer institutes. In this professional development process, teachers systematically examine student learning in their own and colleagues’ classrooms as they work collaboratively on a common "study lesson." Teachers in the institutes will work together on planning, teaching, observing, and critiquing their lessons

For more information about lesson study, see:
