  • First… lets take a look at the free  (or almost free) resources provided below
  • 1. Khan Academy As the site states… watch, practice… learn almost anything. There are over 3,100 videos in multiple STEM areas
  • 2. MIT Blossoms BLOSSOMS video lessons are enriching students’ learning experiences in high school classrooms for students across the globe. This amazing video library contains over 50 math and science lessons, all freely available to teachers as streaming video and Internet downloads and as DVDs and videotapes
  • ...12 more annotations...
  • You also may wish to look for videos or activities using the Common Core at any level of math by exploring Khan’s Common Core Page.
  • The lessons intersperse video instruction with planned exercises that engage students in problem solving and critical thinking, helping students build the kind of gut knowledge that comes from hands-on experience. By guiding students through activities from beginning to end, BLOSSOMS lessons give students a sense of accomplishment and excitement. You can even check these lessons out by standards.
  • 3. Curriki  This is the community of K12 open resources. Currently Curriki has 6.5 million users and contains over 40,000 K12 free learning resources

Experts & NewBIEs | Bloggers on Project Based Learning: How and why should math be taug... - 0 views

  • As a math teacher, what made you turn to Project Based Learning in your own teaching?
  • Why do many math teachers initially resist integrating Project Based Learning into their classes?
  • So we assume having students practicing problems twenty-five times is the only way to learn math. This is a difficult mindset to break. Practice makes perfect is the old adage, but what many math teachers don’t realize is that creating a Project Based Learning environment in a math class doesn’t require students to be “perfect.” Having students solve complex, real-life problems is actually asking students to complete open-ended tasks. These problems may not have one right answer, unlike the practice problems in a textbook. This can be a scary leap for math teachers to take and many students may be hesitant to take this leap as well.

  • How can integrating Project Based Learning into math class create a more authentic framework in which students can learn?
  • For instance, the solution for the BP Oil spill in the Gulf came from mathematical concepts. The heart of calculus is about speed and change. How do you calculate the rate of the oil leaking into the ocean? Unfortunately, we don’t present math this way to our students. Maybe, if we did, we would see more students engaged in math and choosing careers that are focused on solving real world problems with which we, as a global society, are faced.
  • The Common Core focuses on how math concepts interrelate and how they are applied.
  • How does utilizing Project Based Learning create an improved context for preparing students to better meet the Common Core standards for Math?
  • These standards are talking about applying math. Thus, math teachers must start to look into their subject area as more of an in-depth inquiry process, rather better than simply reducing it down to just the formula and practice questions.
  • How can math be integrated with other subjects in projects?
  • What do you believe was the most important “take-away” from your webinar?
