M Cubed Registration open

The Montana Math Meet (M Cubed) is a brand new conference and professional development opportunity sponsored by the Montana Council of Teachers of Mathematics.  M Cubed is a unique professional development opportunity for anyone teaching math at any level K-20.  M Cubed is different than other conferences you have attended in the past.

Cost: Unlike traditional conferences that have steep registration fees, this conference will be free for all MCTM members.  Non-members can also attend for a fee of $25.

Schedule: In traditional conferences there is very little unstructured time. M Cubed has unstructured time for discussions on a variety of topics.  When you register you will choose topic groups that you are interested in participating in.  Lunches will be spent with your topic groups discussing ideas.  You can also meet with your topic groups during the afternoon both days.

Participation:  In a traditional conference, presentations are structured and opportunities for attendees to participate in presentations are often limited.  At M Cubed, there are several lot of ways for you to share your ideas with others.  You can present a five or ten minute idea in the "My Favorite" sessions.  We have been sharing examples of "My Favorite" presentations on the MCTM newsletter.   You can also lead a thirty minute session on a topic of your choice. Each thirty minute session will include 15 minutes of time to present and 10-15 minutes for the group to discuss and give feedback to the presenter.

M Cubed will be held at Montana Tech in Butte on August 10th and 11th.  For more information about the conference or to register, please see the conference website.  We hope to see everyone in Butte in August!
