Title: Math Modeling that Matters in Practice: An Interactive Discussion with the NCTM/COMAP/SIAM Joint Committee
Date: Friday, August 14th
Time:12pm PST, 3pm EDT
Cost: Free for members
Description: We envision this session as bringing together perspectives from the Conference Board of Mathematical Sciences (CBMS) organizations, including the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM), Consortium for Mathematics and Its Applications (COMAP), Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM), and Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators (AMTE) to strengthen and bridge PK–20 modeling experiences. We will discuss examples and opportunities for MTEs to engage in modeling as learners, while considering how these experiences could be used in their own teaching and research. We invite MTEs to consider how they might increase modeling implementation and adapt resources within their courses and community engagement.
Speakers: Ben Galluzzo, Joleigh Honey, Hyunyi Jung, Farshid Safi (listed alphabetically)
