Webinar: Professional Development for K-8 Mathematics Educators - Views on MKT & Mathematical Modeling

Register

Professional development for inservice K-8 mathematics teachers is vital to support teachers’ growth in the field. This webinar will focus on two NSF projects — a STEM-C project emphasizing mathematical modeling and an MSP project supporting teachers in advancing their knowledge about the teaching and learning of middle school mathematics. The STEM-C project engaged K-6 teachers in California, Montana and Virginia in one week of professional development (PD) followed by teacher study groups and a culminating conference. In this webinar we will focus on parallels between the affordances of mathematical modeling in three contexts: professional development, teaching and learning of mathematics. The MSP project was led by community college faculty to build partnerships among Arizona schools/districts and the colleges. Teachers were supported in shifting their thinking about mathematics as a set of skills and procedures to thinking about mathematics as a collection of well-connected ideas that anchors their curriculum and instruction. Participants will leave with ideas about how they can positively impact teachers' relationships with mathematics through professional development.

Webinar: NSF Cyberlearning Solicitation

An informational webinar on the NSF Cyberlearning solicitation, Cyberlearning for Work at the Human-Technology Frontier.

REGISTER 

Synopsis: The purpose of the Cyberlearning for Work at the Human-Technology Frontier program is to fund exploratory and synergistic research in learning technologies to prepare learners to excel in work at the human-technology frontier. This program responds to the pressing societal need to educate and re-educate learners of all ages (students, teachers and workers) in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) content areas to ultimately function in highly technological environments, including in collaboration with intelligent systems. Innovative technologies can reshape learning processes, which in turn can influence new technology design. Learning technology research in this program should be informed by the convergence of multiple disciplines: education and learning sciences, computer and information science and engineering, and cognitive, behavioral and social sciences. This program funds learning technology research in STEM and other foundational areas that enable STEM learning.

The Impact of Engineering Design on Elementary Teacher and Student Learning

Presented by: Brenda Capobianco, Science Learning through Engineering Design (SLED) MSP and Tamara Moore, EngrTEAMS: Engineering to Transform the Education of Analysis, Measurement, and Science in a Team-Based Targeted Mathematics-Science Partnership
RSVP: http://hub.mspnet.org/index.cfm/webinars/webinar_info?id=559

Webinar Description: The Next Generation of Science Standards (NGSS Lead States, 2013) require teachers to integrate both science and engineering practices. At the heart of engineering practices is the engineering design process – a signature approach to solving ill-structured, authentic problems situated within specific constraints and criteria. Since 2012, teachers across the nation have started to transition from teaching science through inquiry to teaching science using engineering design. Consequently, there is a need to identify effective instructional approaches using design as well as measures to examine the impact these approaches have on student learning. In this webinar, we will present two unique approaches to implementing engineering design in the grades 3-8 science classroom and further explicate the impact these models have on both teacher and student learning. Participants will be introduced to two complementary models of engineering design; explore effective approaches to engineering design-based science teacher professional development; learn about discourse tools to employ while teaching science through design; and gain access to cross-disciplinary resources strategically designed to improve student learning.
