MathFest SIGMAA-MKT Business Meeting
Thursday, August 7, 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm
Meeting Room 11
SIGMAA MKT is a community for all who work on the preparation or development for teaching K–12 mathematics. Our members teach courses or conduct research that may involve examining, designing, developing, piloting, and revising tasks and curricula focused on Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching (MKT) in grades K–12.
Come join us at our annual Business Meeting of the SIGMAA MKT to meet and socialize with your fellow colleagues interested in teacher preparation. This is an opportunity for those attending MathFest to hear from SIGMAA MKT leadership, contribute ideas to teacher preparation, and hear from a panel of scholars about mathematical knowledge for teaching.
In this panel, we will also continue discussions about the presentations focused on MKT within the contributed paper session, Strengthening the Mathematical and Statistical Preparation of Secondary Mathematics Teachers through the Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching. All are welcome; if you are not yet a SIGMAA MKT member, please stop by and learn more!
