RabbitMath Grade 11 Teacher Workshop
Description
In the coming 2019-20 academic year we will run our Grade 11 (MCR3U) project in a few Ontario high schools, and the main purpose of the workshop is to give interested teachers a chance to preview and discuss its objectives and features. We expect that those teachers who decide to work with us will be well positioned to make significant contributions towards its future development. It is necessary to register for the workshop. Some financial support is available—email Peter Taylor.
