28. 2023-2024 Regional Mathematics Leadership Cadre: Challenging Notions of Traditional Mathematics Education

Program: Professional Development

Audience: K-12 teachers, teacher leaders, math coaches, and administrators

Dates: 10/17/2023 to 3/13/2024

The Center for Professional Development and Education Reform, in partnership with Wayne-Finger Lakes BOCES, is once again offering an opportunity for teachers, teacher leaders, math coaches, and administrators to come together to learn, share resources and ideas, and provide support to each other as we work to successfully implement high-quality mathematics instruction for K-12 students. Research shows that "each student's success in mathematics is greatly influenced by the opportunities and support for learning provided by teachers” (Yeh et al., 2017, p. vii). Historically, teachers have seen mathematics as memorization and procedures, with little to no sense-making by students within the classroom. These traditional mathematics practices create inequities for students. This year's Cadre will continue our commitment to bring research to practice as we focus on challenging notions of traditional mathematics education. The following principles will guide our work: (1) teach toward the understanding of powerful mathematics, (2) view students as sense makers with valuable, important ideas, and (3) nurture a mathematics community of learners (Yeh et al., 2017, p.viii).

**Note: Participants will complete approximately 2 hours of asynchronous work between sessions.

Morning Beverages and Lunch will be provided.

Audience: All Educators
Dates: 10/27/2023

Teachers are burning out at record levels. They're drowning in unrealistic expectations and doing the lion's share of the work in classrooms.
Sound familiar? If so, we encourage you to join us on October 27th for a day of learning from Catlin Tucker, national author and educational consultant. Dr. Tucker will help us shift from time-consuming, teacher-led, and often frustratingly ineffective workflows to sustainable student-led workflows that position learners at the center of the learning experience. In addition to Dr. Tucker, the day will feature breakout sessions in which participants can choose sessions led by local educators working every day to personalize learning for the varying students in their classrooms.
The first 125 participants to register (and secure district approval) will receive a copy of Dr. Tucker's latest book: The Shift to Student-Led: Reimagining Classroom Workflows with UDL and Blended Learning.
*Workshop cost includes lunch.
