MC2-LIFT: Teaming to Design Engaged Learning in Mathematics for Teachers and Their Students
Abstract
The Mathematically Connected Communities - Leadership Institute for Teachers (MC2-LIFT) project employs a team approach to designing and presenting an institute for mathematics teacher leaders to help them experience, implement, and study classroom learning environments that are linked to increased student achievement in mathematics. This presentation will describe how we coordinate efforts between our three main working groups - Course Development Team, School Support Team, and Research Team - to ensure a cohesive approach to improving classroom practice and increasing student mathematics learning. We will share resources for gathering teacher feedback, reflecting on classroom practice, and observing the impact of the classroom environment on students' learning of mathematics.View All Paper Session Presentations from the 2011 MSP LNC Conference
