  3. M2 ED – A Support System • “Non-content” certified elementary and secondary school mathematics teachers • Mathematics, science and technology (STEM) teachers desiring to be professionally developed. • STEM teachers interested in National Board Certification.

  4. M2 ED – A Portal • Access to best practices for teaching STEM • Access to Professional Development for STEM • Access to lesson plans and classroom activities based on research

  5. M2 ED – Leading Research • How people learn • How to teach mathematics • How to integrate reading into the process

  6. M2 ED – A Work of Progress, In Progress • Phase I – Partnerships formed and staff focused to develop the infrastructure of the portal – video, voice, data channels. • Phase II – Collecting and Organizing researched modules and resources for evaluation and eventual selection for use. • Phase III – Enhancement, Development, and Evaluation.

  7. M2 ED – Let’s Explore! • The “Heavy” Document – Research/Rationale (click here) • The MathMatters Every Day (M2ED)Web page (click here) • CEC Modules – Continuing Education (click here) • LOYO Modules – Learn On your Own Best Practices (click here) • LIM Modules – Literacy in Mathematics – Assistance for identifying literacy strengthening aspects of texts (click here) • The STEM Modules (click here)

  8. M2 ED – STEM Modules Left Frame – the Index • Return to M2ED • Return to STEM Modules • The Conscious Problem Solver – Dartmouth • M-DCPS Developed Modules • National and Local STEM Resources • Form for Collaboration Submission • Experimental Problem Solver Diagnostic

  9. M2 ED – Your Turn to Try • Explore Dartmouths Problem Solving Process • The elements • The practice – Design a pencil • Define the Problem – What is a pencil? • Redefined/Solutions: • body and lead • and shape and length • What are the constraints? • New Problems – What is the body? What is Lead? What is the Shape? What is the length? • Etc…

  10. M2 ED – STEM Modules – Problem Solving Cycle

  11. M2 ED – Engineering/Competition Projects – Your Turn Review and Prepare Presentation on each: • Bottle Rockets • Bridge • Free Design • Mousetrap Car • Rubber Band Car • Sand Structure

  12. M2 ED – Problem Solving and Bloom’s Taxonomy • Raising awareness of degrees of sophistication • Teachers first! • Try it • Collaborate on it
