2024 Northwest Mathematics Conference

What if you could help students see slope not as an equation to memorize, but as a representation of real events? Get out of your seats to model relationships between position and time using hands-on data collection. Learn some surprising things about teaching rate of change from algebra through calculus.

Come experiences how learning grounded in creativity & art can ignite engagement, interest, & passion in all students for coding and STEAM in math. We will model pedagogical approaches that are most appropriate for students and teachers new to coding. Code music on a Micro:bit? Create beautiful geometric designs with TI-Rover?
