Bringing Project-Based Learning to Life in Mathematics, A Math Workshop Series Presentation
Are you tired of the age-old math classroom question, “When are we ever going to use this?” Have you ever wondered how academically rich Project-Based Learning (PBL) could be implemented in the mathematics classroom? Learn and explore with award-winning educator and author Maggie Lee McHugh. Maggie will share stories of her experiences implementing PBL into the K-12 mathematics classroom, specifically highlighting products students have created using technology. Resources and tips for implementing PBL will be shared, along with small, tangible steps you can take to increase authenticity in your math classroom tomorrow!
Our goal is to make this workshop series accessible to everyone, regardless of financial circumstances. The full value of the series is $50 ($10 per workshop), but we invite you to contribute what you are able to. If you can pay more, your generosity will help support others who may not be able to afford the full amount. If the cost is a barrier, please contribute what feels manageable for you. We believe in community support and appreciate any contribution that makes this opportunity available to all.
