MOTIVATION The College Readiness Math Standards: Moving beyond course requirements to clarifying what students should know and be able to do. College and Work- Ready Choices for High School Math

Provide rigorous alternative to calculus track. Investigate interesting topics in mathematics while maintaining algebra competency. Rekindle fun, excitement and beauty of mathematics. GOALS

Created by faculty and administrators from: Auburn School District Enumclaw School District Green River Community College Kent School District Renton School District Sumner School District DEVELOPMENT

DEVELOPMENT 1 or 2 semesters Module based or stand alone Minimum math entry requirements Competing AP math courses Availability of high school math teachers What’s in a name? NCAA and district approval Textbooks

Semester 1: Graph Theory Scheduling Voting Linear Programming Probability Statistics Fair Division Semester 2: Finance Geometry Game Theory Modeling functions: linear, quadratic, exponential, logarithmic, logistic COURSE CONTENT

PROCESS (equal in importance to content) Inquiry Problem solving Reasoning Communication

PEDAGOGY (equal in importance to content) Active engagement Authentic applications Literacy strategies Study skills for success

Our most important resource Professional development workshops Learning Communities Feedback from the classroom “Every day is different… a fresh start for each unit of study.” TEACHERS

Engaging students, faculty, administrators and parents. Fall 2009: 10 school districts with 18 high schools Renton, Kent, Auburn, Enumclaw, Puyallup, Sumner, Federal Way, Battleground, Highline, Thurston, Whatcom APPLICATIONS in MATHEMATICAL REASONING

“If I don’t do well on this module, I know that I might be able to understand the next one.” “Oh, you mean I can just learn it?” “My son has never brought math work home before. Now he loves doing it. What are you doing?” UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES

Graph Theory: Daily Lesson Plan Literacy Strategies Assessment Voting Theory Fair Division Teacher Resources: Manual CD DVD ACTIVITIES

District approval:Course content Name Textbook Teacher preparation Teacher learning community Student preparation Communication with counselors and students IMPLEMENTATION
