We'll examine how
learning trajectories can be used to monitor
and support
mathematical growth during engagement in rich, vibrant math workshops in contrast to the use of textbooks,
and how technology can be a powerful tool in providing differentiation
and professional support.
Basis Policy Research
and ATI have built a partnership supporting the fair evaluation of educator effectiveness by implementing
mathematical models that include multiple measures of student
growth and which evaluate educator effectiveness using techniques that take into account a variety of factors that may impact student
learning but over which the teacher has no influence.
The Starting Strong package, a suite of 10 activities
and routines designed to create a
learning environment that fosters students» beliefs about themselves as
mathematical learners
and doers, has had significant impact in the first month of the course on students»
growth mindset, academic belonging,
and belief that mathematics has value.
