Summer Institute
The purpose of this summer work is to collaboratively create tasks that engage all students in meaningful culturally responsive mathematics, which will increase engagement and relevance to all students. Two weeks during the summer, students and teachers engage in shared learning and work in teams to modify tasks within current mathematics textbooks. The tasks created through this summer institute will be housed virtually and available statewide. The goals of this project is to deepen understanding of Culturally Responsive Mathematics and collaboratively learn and work on teams with students, teachers, and pre-service teachers.
