The theme of this year’s conference is Learning Mathematics: It’s Relational!
Registration is now open! Visit the conference website for the latest information on speakers and workshops, and to get an early-bird discount rate.
Join hosts Sean Chorney and Susan Robinson for a virtual discussion of Anne Watson’s book, Raising Achievement in Secondary Mathematics.
“Anne Watson presents a provocative perspective in her book and argues, for example, that simplifying mathematical questions for previously low achieving students runs counter to the learning of mathematics. She provides empirical evidence and strong argumentation of how mathematics can be taught more equitably and authentically and provides suggestions as to how to support previously low achieving students.”

A Zoom link will be sent the day before the meeting.
There are lots of secondhand copies of this book available online through Abebooks (if you want to avoid Amazon).
