Come discover what can happen when students, mathematics, and technology meet! Learn how to engage students in a way of thinking that goes beyond reaching a particular solution or response to a particular problem. Utilize software to represent knowledge and thinking in multiple ways. Discover how to explore mathematics in a far more meaningful way than in the past. Teach students to engage more with the material and have more control over their learning. Learn ways to encourage student-directed inquiry, get students actively engaged and investigating mathematics, and improve students' attitude towards mathematics!
