Saturday, April 12, 2014: 11:00 AM-12:00 PM
R03 (Convention Center)
Lead Speaker:
John Woodward


Mathematical discourse is critical if all students are to improve their communication and problem-solving skills. The NCTM and Common Core standards acknowledge the importance of discourse, yet we still need to examine how students with learning disabilities can fully participate in regular or special education classrooms. The tensions found in each setting will be discussed.
