Lisa Fisher presenting at MLC Summer Institute

Date

Clarity Innovations Learning Experience Designer Lisa Fisher will be presenting two sessions at The Math Learning Center's Summer Leadership Institute (SLI) July 6-8, 2022, in Chicago, Illinois. The immersive and hands-on, three-day event offers instructional coaches, school administrators, curriculum specialists, and teacher-leaders the tools for initiating and sustaining a successful implementation of Bridges® in Mathematics, the K-5 curriculum published by MLC.

Using MLC Apps to Support Diverse & Inclusive Mathematics Instruction

In this session, Lisa will take you through a series of challenge-based app activities designed to get you “up and running” with the MLC apps and showcase diverse approaches to mathematical thinking. While building your confidence and fluency with the apps, you’ll have opportunities to reflect on how they can be used to create a sense of belongingness and inclusion in your mathematics classroom.

Activate Thinking and Discourse with the Number Chart App

In this session, Lisa will use a variety of technology enhanced activities designed to promote active student discourse about mathematics. Besides describing the instructional context of the app's features, Lisa will show how the app can not only build number sense, but also a sense of self-confidence through active, visual thinking about math.
