Of all the PD sessions I've facilitated in the last 10 yrs, I've never been as excited as I have been in getting ready for this one. If you're at #NCTM26DEN, Come join @pgliljedahl and I and explore with us! (THURS 10/29 Colorado CC, Bluebird Ball 2B, 1p - 2p). @BTCthinks@NCTM
Come join @pgliljedahl and I as we discuss effective and purposeful integration of technology within BTC pedagogy, where students are empowered to think even more deeply and critically. Leave with a plethora of resources you can begin to integrate into your thinking classroom.
