Title: Insights and Research on Transformative Teaching in Mathematics
Abstract: Mathematics plays an important role in students’ educational success by cultivating critical skills such as problem-solving, critical thinking, quantitative reasoning, and learning from mistakes. During this keynote session, participants will hear lessons learned from instructional partnerships with mathematics faculty members who implement effective teaching practices to advance student learning and skill development. Participants will also explore a research-based framework for STEM teaching as it applies to math instruction.Presentation Information: -
Speaker: Dave Kung, TPSE Math
Title: Changing Our Minds about Intro Math
Abstract: The math community has a problem. Far too many students (especially those from underserved populations) are not succeeding in our introductory college courses. In this interactive session, we’ll explore how the mathematics community’s views of students, of how they learn, and of what’s best for them contribute to this problem. Through discussions of several surprising studies, you might even change your mind, coming away with specific things you can do to better support your students.
