Both! The workshop addresses challenges common to all secondary math teachers as they work toward building mathematical reasoners

Perfect. You'll get a vision of what it means to teach students to reason mathematically in  grades 6-12. The workshop helps you understand the underpinnings of developing mathematical reasoning so you can give students the experiences they need to move them forward.

While the philosophy is consistent (math is figureoutable!), this workshop focuses specifically on the unique challenges of working with older students who've been algorithm-dependent for years. You'll see concrete examples with proportional relationships, functions, and advanced concepts.

Yes! Math is FigureOutAble is not at replacement curricula. We promote clarification on what it takes to build student mathematicians. You'll gain insights that enhance whatever curriculum you use, helping you teach it in a way that builds reasoning instead of just procedural fluency.

This is an online workshop, so you need to have an Internet-connected device and feel comfortable browsing websites. Most devices including computers, tablets (such as iPads), and phones should have no problem using the site.

You will need to have the ability to watch videos—some school districts block websites that play videos. If you can see the video at the top of this page, you're probably going to be fine.
