The objective of this workshop is to talk about different ways of making abstract ideas in mathematics more real for students. Sometimes this involves using various technologies, and other times it does not. I also want to create a set of slides for my workshop so that I can respond to the potential needs of the participants who come to the workshop. In general, the idea is pedagogy first, and then asking the question, what tools (technological or other wise) can we use to address the pedagogy?
Huge hat tip to Dan Meyer for making some resources that are particularly useful in addressing some of the pedagogical ideas I’m trying to explore with participants.
Any suggestions?
