I am an EdTech researcher and work for a math solution provider. They would like to know what kind of tech solutions you use and want. Let me ask some questions.
Which platform do you use for your interim/formative assessment?
Does it have an auto-scoring function?
Do you think auto-scoring is helpful for your work?
Do you use Desmos?
Any feedback will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
I will be testing next week Monday. Can anyone recommend sites that have Mathematical manipulatives, models & instructional technology. Any test taking tips would be greatly appreciated. Please email me dhorne040@gmail.com. Thanks in advance
There is a benchmark called Space Challenge which is cool, but they have another tool called Countdown that I've been using. It's like a form of digital flash cards, but it's more advanced than that.
Anyway, it's really helpful and I'm using it daily. Thankfully it only takes a few minutes a day, which is great because I don't have time to mess with anything new. I have a hard enough time keeping up with everything else!
What kinds of tools or methods are you all using to teach basic math facts? Has it been effective? Do you use free or paid resources?
Online resources have never been more relevant or in demand. Learning/teaching in quarantine has itself been an educative experience, albeit quite stressful sometimes. Districts are working in full swing to make this transition easier for however long we need to do this, so there's that to be thankful for.
Here is one concept explainer I've been using for Set Builder Notation. It's easy to follow and has examples. Let me know if you find more such resources.
...See MoreHi all, I have created some upper elementary math specific fob groups for people to come to for tips and support for teaching math in their subject area!

Check out this awesome video for squaring numbers! It's only 20 seconds long and students can pause it at certain points if they need more time to see the pattern. I wish I had something like this for homework help while I was growing up!
Does anyone have experience with the Springboard curriculum? I will be teaching Algebra 2 in the fall and am overly concerned about the pacing and curriculum as a whole. I don't seem to have any freedom in the structure of my lessons. It seems all of my creativity is been taken away. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
