Description
Challenging tasks are complex and absorbing
mathematical problems with multiple solution
pathways.
(Sullivan & Mornane, 2013).
The professional learning will focus on:
- Identifying the key features of challenging tasks
- Engaging in examples of challenging tasks
- Investigating prompts and strategies to enable and extend all mathematicians
- Exploring the proficiencies – understanding, fluency, problem solving and reasoning
- Considering strategies to build a community of mathematicians who persist, cooperate and demonstrate flexible thinking.
If you have attended Andrea’s Professional Learning programs in 2018/9 you will know that this session will be ‘jam – packed’ with challenging mathematics tasks.
Be prepared to view, discuss, solve, think, participate, differentiate, collaborate, record and reflect!
