ATMNE NH 2024

Professional development has been broken for decades - and will continue to be broken until we disrupt the institutional norms that erode teacher agency. I'm inviting all of us - classroom teachers and those who support their learning - to embark on a journey to create the teacher-centered culture of professional learning we need to thrive as imperfect and unfinished teachers. It's time that we learn how to direct our own professional growth, individually and collectively, so we can seize control of our teaching legacy and the math stories we leave behind in this world.

Are you working on increasing focus on grade-content, working to disrupt unproductive mindsets and practices that inhibit learning, and/or striving to achieve more equitable instructional practices? Brave and bold educators ask good questions that help to create momentum and move work forward. Come to this session to consider how the seemingly simple act of asking thoughtful and intentional questions of yourself, your colleagues, and varied stakeholders drives meaningful change for students.

Engage in participant-led discussions, where you'll have the freedom to choose topics, share insights, and collaborate with fellow educators. Experience a laid-back, communal learning atmosphere where everyone's voice is valued and ideas are exchanged freely. Come ready to co-create and explore innovative approaches to math education together!
