This session is the first in a 3-part JUMP Math series. See below for additional titles.
JUMP Math is founded on the belief that all children can learn math and all teachers can become experts in the subject. JUMP has developed an evidence-based approach to instruction, called “guided discovery,” that will help you nurture the potential in every student. In a randomized controlled trial, students taught by this method (featured in Scientific American Mind) progressed at twice the rate of those in the control group. JUMP Math founder, John Mighton, shows you how to use JUMP’s online Teacher’s Guides to raise levels of student engagement, boost confidence, close the gap between students and instill a deep understanding and love of math in your students.
