Montana Learning Center at Canyon Ferry Lake is a non-profit organization providing educational enrichment through critical thinking with the goal to inspire our next generation to do extraordinary things for the betterment of society. The MLC has proudly been serving students and teachers since 1984.
University of Washington’s College of Education and Teaching Channel invite you to participate in the pilot of an online Learning Lab. Argumentation in Mathematics An interactive online course designed for K-2 classroom teachers Constructing arguments and critiquing the reasoning of others is one of eight standards for mathematical practice described by the Common Core State Standards. Children of all ages can engage in mathematical argumentation by making claims about mathematical relationships, supporting their reasoning with evidence, making sense of one another’s arguments, and working together to try to reach consensus about whether mathematical claims are valid. This course features two classroom activities through which we can support our youngest learners to engage in argumentation: Which One Doesn’t Belong? and Same or Not the Same? Each week, you will explore ideas related to argumentation through brief readings, video vignettes, and participating in discussion. Lab coursework is meant to be interactive and closely tied to your classroom instruction, including opportunities to try out these activities with your students, discuss practice with other K-2 teachers, and share artifacts from your own practice. Course Details: ● This Learning Lab consists of 10 weeks of lessons. ● The course will begin mid-March and will include one “break week” in the spring. ● This pilot is offered at no cost. In fact, teachers will receive a $250 stipend for completion of the course and providing feedback via survey and interview. ● Coursework is likely to take 1-3 hours to complete each week. This can be completed at any point in the week that works for you. ● Some assignments involve filming students engaging in argumentation or submitting student work samples. You will need to have access to a camera or smartphone that will allow you to submit video artifacts. ● Researchers at the University of Washington are studying what teachers learn from professional collaboration in the Labs, using records of online work. Teachers who participate in a Learning Lab have the option to be included in this research. You may participate in a Learning Lab and receive compensation without participating in the research. Space in this pilot is limited. For questions, contact Kendra Lomax at klomax@uw.edu<mailto:klomax@uw.edu>. Project funded by the National Science Foundation
