The Common Core Mathematical Content Standards describe what a proficient student knows, but the Practice Standards explain what that student does. The difference between that vision and what students do in most math classes in most states is vast. The presenter will explain some of those differences and offer practical strategies for bridging that gap, all while explaining how you – yes you – can break a world record.
Social media has revolutionized communication, allowing for celebrities and professionals to connect with a much larger audience. In this workshop, attendees will get hands-on and demo Twitter, Edmodo (a social-based Learning Management System), and more social media outlets. Whether it’s to follow your favorite literacy author or to network with an industry professional, we show how social media networks can be leveraged for students and teachers.
