106- Generating Students' and Teachers' Excitement for Mathematical Problem Solving

Thursday, October 20, 2011: 2:00 PM-3:00 PM
Room 405/406 (Atlantic City Convention Center)
Lead Speaker:
Nicholas Restivo

A "problem" is not a problem if it has an easy solution. Real problems must challenge appropriately, have multiple solution paths, and lead students to understand mathematical concepts better. Participants will discover ways that they and their students can become better problem solvers while preparing them for any assessment.
