matlmse.jpgThis is a unique program designed for mathematics teachers in middle and high school or who wish to teach mathematics at that level.
The program has two parts: the first part is mathematics content focused on deepening the participants' understanding of mathematical concepts and the connections among the various mathematics branches so they are understood as a coherent whole at levels K-16. The content courses are designed to increase the participants' comfort with higher-level mathematics to enhance their teaching with additional depth and breadth of content. The second part emphasizes teacher leadership in which teachers are trained to become leaders and advocates for mathematics and science education in their own school and district. The courses in the program present the content and pedagogy in a parallel manner and connect the two throughout the program.
