Bootstrap: Algebra 2 Course Information
This five-day workshop series will equip educators with the ability to implement module-based math lessons that capitalize on the modern digital tools that computer science offers to support effective and efficient teaching and learning. Check out either of these workshops whether you are a math, CS, or other mainstream content educator. These materials are designed for Algebra 2 teachers looking to add a project-based approach to their existing practice. In a few class periods, students will have learned all of the programming they need to explore quadratic, exponential, logarithmic, and periodic relationships in data. When Algebra 2 content is applied and motivated by concepts from Data Science, schools get the best of both - all in the same class. More information about Bootstrap workshops. |
