How can we design mathematical learning environments such that
​our students will be authentically engaged?

FALL 2019 - Motivational Features for Authentically Engaging Students in Mathematics
 
A) Introduction
In this 4-part series, participate in a group study of Ilana Seidel Horn's book, Motivated: Designing Math Classrooms Where Students Want to Join In (2017). As a book study, our group will discuss the motivational features--belongingness, meaningfulness, competence, accountability and autonomy--presented and consider how they relate to transforming classroom practices and school culture in the teaching and learning of Mathematics.

JUST FOR YOU!
​
Upon completion of the 4-week series, each registrant will receive a digital copy of a sample study guide** that they can use for further study and/or in facilitating professional learning alongside other educators.

​This invaluable resource will include each of the following supplements:

Components for Each Chapter Study:
  • A key quote as a launch-point for chapter discussion​
  • Sample discussion prompts for instructional leaders
  • Sample prompts for monitoring school improvement into shifting social risk
Other Components:
  • Key Quotes Carousel

About
I am passionate about leadership for learning and teaching and learning through inquiry. Through collaborative exploration of high-yield, pedagogical strategies, I have been able to further engage students to deepen their learning and fellow educators in continuously growing their practice--Flipped Learning, Thinking Classrooms, culturing Student Voice, and balancing approaches to instruction in Mathematics--as examples. I hope that the sites and resources I have created serve you well in your educational journey through leadership for learning, teaching and learning by moving professional learning into your time ... your space. If you have questions or feedback, please feel free to contact me. Sincerely Yours, Chris Stewart |OCT | Founder & Educational Consultant, Flipping the Focus.
