“Because of the MEC course, I’ve made some positive changes in my teaching and in my students’ learning. I am encouraging students to better understand their own thinking. The activities we complete in class require students to demonstrate and explain their thinking while allowing them opportunities to see a problem in a variety of ways using multiple representations. It amazes me to find that I can learn so much from my students just by making the time for them to communicate their thinking and ways of understanding.” - High School Mathematics Teacher
