MSPnet Academy: Moving to Common Practice with the Common Core
Description
Moving to Common Practice with the Common Core: Building District Capacity to Transform Mathematics ClassroomsThis webinar will present our work in building the capacity of school districts to implement the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics. A University-District Partnership initiated a leadership project that engaged district teams of teachers and math specialists across six districts. The project goals are to deepen teachers' mathematical knowledge of standards progressions and develop the team members as teacher leaders for their districts. We will summarize the work across all districts and highlight the work in one district as a case illustration. In particular, we will discuss and provide examples of critical components for building team capacity and district-based leverage points that are fueling movement toward common mathematics practice for the Common Core.
