Excellence in Teaching Mathematics and Science: Research and Practice
Spring 2024 Chicago Symposium Series
April 12, 2024
10:00 AM - 5:00 PM
Overview
Join fellow educators for the Spring 2024 Chicago Symposium Series on Excellence in Teaching Mathematics and Science: Research and Practice at Loyola University on April 12, 2024. The Chicago Symposium is a forum for faculty and graduate students in education, mathematics, and science devoted to improving teaching and learning of mathematics and science. Their inter-disciplinary forums bring together people from universities, 4-year colleges and 2-year colleges.
This will be the second Spring Symposium of the year. Their previous event, the 58th Symposium, was a great success, with 70 attendees from 16 institutions and organizations. They're now in their 26th year of hosting these events and hope to continue the tradition for many years to come.
Goals
- To encourage productive dialog among faculty from universities, 4-year colleges and community colleges on the common issue of instructional improvement.
- To highlight exemplary practices from Chicago area institutions.
- To assist Chicago area faculty in making and maintaining professional contacts.
- To inform mathematics and science faculty on current research in mathematics and science education and point out ways in which research can directly impact their own teaching.
- To increase awareness of how institutions of higher learning may impact pre-college math and science instruction and involve faculty in preparation of future teachers.
- To strengthen relationships and partnerships with the Chicago Public Schools
