Offerings

MEC professional development and community outreach offerings bring K-20 teachers of mathematics, administrators, students, parents, and community members together in pursuit of and support for high quality mathematics programs in schools. The cornerstone of all sessions lies in MEC’s Principles of Design which guide all offerings to model how to meet a range of learner needs without labeling students. Participants engage in ‘expandable tasks’ – tasks that allow access to struggling learners, while challenging even very mathematically astute learners to take mathematics in deep and worthwhile directions. Sessions enhance participants’ knowledge of content, instructional strategies, and how people learn mathematics.
