Intensive Workshop
July 27-29, 1PM-4PM ET
Lead Facilitators: Nina White (University of Michigan), Robin Wilson (Cal Poly Pomona)
Secondary Facilitators: Francesca Gandini (Kalamazoo College), Annaliese Keiser (University of Michigan), and Christine Von Renesse (Westfield State University)
This 3-day, 9-hour virtual workshop will:
give you a broad introduction to using Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL) in your math teaching (And if you already have a solid introduction, we have a parallel session planned!)
be fully interactive, collaborative, and hands-on
introduce core principles you can apply to teaching in both in-person and virtual environments (and everything in between!)
center guidance for designing and redesigning courses to embed equitable mathematics teaching practices that increase learning opportunities for all students.
provide you with further resources to utilize before, during, and after the workshop
Participants
The workshop has 40 spots available. If we reach capacity, priority will be given to participants within the state of Michigan and faculty from two-year colleges.
All college math instructors--including graduate students!!--are welcome as participants.
Program is aimed at both new and experienced users of Inquiry-Based Learning.
Logistics
The workshop is FREE
Meetings will happen virtually, over Zoom, and will include breaks.
To optimize our short synchronous time together, there will be some amount of homework in preparation for Days 2 and 3 or the workshop. It will be emailed to participants by July 20.
Funding for this workshop is provided by the Milner endowment to the University of Michigan Department of Mathematics.
