How Might Our Beliefs Impact Our Identity as Mathematics Educators?

About This Webinar

As we engage in professional development with teachers mathematics teaching & learning, we have found that asking three questions is a crucial place to begin the work with any group. As you think about the teaching and learning teams you are a part of, consider these three questions:

Who are we?
Why are we doing this?
Why are doing this this way?

NCTM’s Guiding Principles for School Mathematics states that, “Professionalism [exists] in an excellent mathematics program, [when] educators hold themselves and their colleagues accountable for the mathematical success of every student and for their personal and collective professional growth toward effective teaching and learning of mathematics” (Principles to Actions p.5 - NCTM 2014). How are we holding our collective accountability in shared professional growth?
Join us for discussion and engagement around job-embedded professional learning across PreK-G12 mathematics!

Host Coordinator
I am a mother, wife and math teacher. I currently teach at Moravian College in Bethlehem, PA and my favorite class to teach is statistics! This is my 27th year of teaching and I am a Desmos fellow and Desmos certified presenter. @mathteacher24 is my twitter handle and I blog at mathteacher24.blogspot.com. I have several tech related videos for stat and TI-NSpire at www.youtube.com/mathteacher24. Feel free to ask me questions about National Board Certification (renewed in 2015). I also enjoy singing, reading and staying fit using workouts from Beachbody (P90X3/TurboFire/21DFX).
Webinar hosting presenter Megan  Holmstrom
Megan Holmstrom is an independent consultant with MathSpeakGlobal, working in PreK-G12 mathematics teaching & learning, with an emphasis mathematics teaching practices that impact student learning outcomes. Megan also currently serves on NCTM’s Teaching Children Mathematics editorial panel and she was most recently with The American School of Madrid in the role of Upper School Instructional Coach and Student Academic Support. Previous to Madrid, Megan was with The American School of Dubai as the Teaching & Learning Coach.

Throughout her 20 year career in education, Megan spent 12 years in the classroom, before moving into curriculum & instruction and coaching. While in the States, Megan was an adjunct faculty member at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles in the Center for Math & Science Teaching. As faculty, she co-taught weekly graduate courses, while working with public schools to develop teacher-leaders in elementary mathematics. Over the course of her career Megan also participated on an Instructional Materials Adoption Panel (California, 2005), as well as Teachers Mathematics Advisory Panel (California, 2009-2010). She is most excited about being a part of a community that supports teachers and students in all things mathematics teaching & learning!

Global Math Department webinar platform hosts How Might Our Beliefs Impact Our Identity as Mathematics Educators?
The Global Math Department began as a group of teachers who knew each other through Twitter, math education blogs and Twitter Math Camp. Since 2012 The Global Math Department community has grown into a multi-faceted group of math educators who love to share their ideas related to teaching and learning mathematics. We recognize that as educators we are charged with promoting equity and access within mathematics instruction. In addition, we believe it is crucial that teachers be provided with quality resources and ideas that they can use immediately with their students. Lively and friendly conversations in our weekly webinars encourage all participants to share and continue to grow as educators.
