12- Using Technology to Increase Conceptual Understanding in Algebra and Geometry

Thursday, October 25, 2012: 8:00 AM-9:00 AM
Meeting Room 17 (Convention Center)
Lead Speaker:
Annie Fetter


Many topics in algebra and geometry are difficult to address conceptually and tend to be taught procedurally. We’ll explore interactive applets that let students “notice and wonder,” talk about mathematical situations, and develop conceptual understandings of triangle properties, linear equations, systems of equations, and factoring trinomials.

Presentation Format: 9-12 Session
