Meet the CT Newly-Required HS Finance Course with a Full-Year Math Credit FILLING
Monday March 24, 2025 9:30am - 10:30am EDT
George A
Advanced Algebra with Financial Applications is an alternative course for struggling students who need to take 3-4 years of math to graduate, and for whom Algebra 2 is a daunting task. Additionally, future CT high school graduates will be required to take a finance course, and this course can meet the standards for that course. Consequently. all math students can take it as an elective--it meets the needs of every single student.

Is the New SAT a good assessment of student learning? FILLING
Monday March 24, 2025 11:30am - 12:30pm EDT
Whalley
The presenter, a co-author of the Connecticut Joint Position Paper on Equity in Mathematics Education, will begin the session by addressing two questions: how well is the assessment aligned to CCS-Math Standards (especially the Math Practice Standards) and how well is it aligned to the Equity in Mathematics Education Document? The second half of the session will consist of a roundtable discussion on these issues.

This fast-paced, example-laden and interactive discussion will make the case that, for far too many students, high school math is an inequitable, underperforming mess and that the status quo is simply no longer acceptable. We will look at a range of specific suggestions for making the case for change and for making long overdue changes in what and how we teach these four years of mathematics.
