Webcast: June
28, 2007
What does it mean to coach for student success in mathematics? Coaching for student success isn't just about having a numeracy coach. It is about including everyone in contributing to the improvement of numeracy instruction and student learning and achievement in mathematics.
During this webcast, you will become familiar with some key notions of numeracy coaching from the experiences of Ontario classroom teachers, principals, consultants, superintendents, and math education researchers. These educators will offer several examples of effective instructional strategies that are applicable in classrooms and in job-embedded professional learning contexts.
The purpose of this webcast is to stimulate professional learning about organizing for and improving numeracy instruction. The following questions are intended to promote thoughtful dialogue and inspire action that focuses on coaching students for success in mathematics.
- What teaching strategies have you used to coach students for success in learning mathematics?
- What is the impact of such strategies on student learning of mathematics? How do you know?
- What do your school and school board do to organize for job-embedded professional learning in numeracy?
