Elementary Mathematics For All Students (Course #50652):
Re-invigorate your math instruction by coming together to collaborate with teachers, engage with rich mathematics tasks, and apply key practices to your own math classroom. Leave with concrete strategies you can use to enhance your planning, instruction, and assessment to create an equitable learning environment that enables all of your students to succeed in mathematics.
Secondary Mathematics for All Students (Course #52312):
Participants will learn to apply the Utah Multi-Tiered System of Support (UMTSS) framework to increase student learning of mathematics and promote high expectations for each and every student. The sessions will focus on practical strategies to implement high quality math tasks in an accessible way, elicit student thinking, and support productive struggle. Discussions and activities will integrate and encompass the critical components of the UMTSS framework: High-quality Instruction, Team-based Problem Solving, and Data-based Decision Making.
What the Tech? Improving the Efficacy of Your Mathematics Classroom (Course #52275):
What the heck is “What the Tech”? In this course, mathematics plays the lead role with technology as the supporting actor. Come learn about what makes a mathematics classroom effective, how to incorporate technology into a mathematics classroom strategically and how to evaluate what’s working and what is not. Novice to expert tech users from grades K-12 will be engaged in the use of digital tools to provide opportunities for students to reason critically, communicate effectively, and model mathematical concepts using multiple representations.

Each two-day course will cost $25 and will get participants lunch on both days, resources, and MIDAS credit.
Courses will run during the following dates and locations from 8:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. each day:
Mathematics for All Students: Monday and Tuesday (or Tuesday and Wednesday)
What the Tech?: Wednesday and Thursday (or Thursday and Friday)
