| In this webinar, Cathy Carroll, Senior Research Associate at WestEd, will introduce Learning to Lead Mathematics Professional Development (LLMPD), a set of video-based case materials designed to develop the skills, sensibilities, and long-term capacity of mathematics professional development leaders, enabling them to design and implement quality mathematics professional development. This webinar will engage participants in a simulation of an actual videocase. |
Based on the belief that mathematical knowledge is key to high quality professional development, the mathematics represented in the cases is centered in a limited set of important ideas focused on algebraic thinking and reasoning. Videos portray authentic instances of professional development practice. Rather than considering them as exemplars to model, these materials utilize a case-method approach, where leaders inquire into professional development practice in K-12 mathematics.
This webinar will engage participants in a simulation of an actual videocase and then draw from that experience to provide some information on the following: - the goals of LLMPD;
- the philosophy that underlies the design of the materials;
- the design of the seminar series; and
- what outcomes to expect.
