Technology to Teach Problem-Solving

Math class will never be the same! This workshop is designed to show educators how to involve students with problem-solving activities and lessons integrating technology. Participants will learn ways to incorporate critical thinking and logic skills into their students' everyday classwork by using our Puzzle Logic software.

Clip-Art Creations

Participants will receive hands-on experience learning how to integrate clip art images to create newsletters, parent communications, tests, worksheets, overhead transparencies, awards, and more. Participants will create instructional materials using Clip Art for Elementary Teachers, Clip Art for Science Teachers, and Clip Art for Math Teachers.

Math Power Through Technology

Computers and mathematical models are a powerful combination. This workshop provides an opportunity to explore valuable software focusing on challenging yet rewarding math topics such as graphing, probability, geometry, and problem solving. Featured programs will be GraphPower, Probability Toolkit, Geometry Toolkit, and Balancing Act.

Hands-On Math

Tired of paper and pencil, rote memory of math facts, timed tests? This workshop features the award winning software series, Hands-On Math: Volumes 1,2, and 3. Each program simulates math manipulative devices and instructional techniques using a multimedia approach to focus students' attention on fundamental math concepts. Learn about the Playground menu which provides the child with free exploration of concepts and the Exercise menu that reinforces essential math concepts. Participants will leave with an abundance of ways to link technology with their existing math curriculum.
