Symposium on algebra in multitiered support systems set for February 20

MCPER Mathematics Institute Fellows Barbara Dougherty and Karen Karp will lead a symposium titled “2b or Not 2b: Preparing for Algebra in Multitiered Systems of Support” from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on February 20 in Thompson Conference Center Room 3.122. The symposium will focus on research-based strategies that can support student understanding at the conceptual and procedural levels.
