CBU Course: How do we create student engagement in challenging mathematics?

Dan Meyer has a video from his 2016 NCTM talk. During this talk he shares several different ways to get students talking about math and engaged in thinking about math.

We will journey with Dan and learn what he says will help teachers move beyond relevance and real world to open up math classrooms with stronger strategies for student engagement.

The goal of this class will be listen to Dan's talk, blog or tweet about what we have learned, and hopefully create something to share along the way with our colleagues.

Requirements for the 3 hours of time:

1) Watch to Dan's talk on Vimeo during the week of October 23-27
2) Create one blog post on what you have learned from Dan during the week of October 30-Nov 3.
       a) I will have the questions to reflect on posted on my blog.
       -- Respond to at least one blog post from a colleague
3) We will meet the week of October 30-Nov 3 on Twitter to discuss online in real time for 40-45 minutes about what we have learned, how this can impact our classrooms, and how we are planning on using the information.  We will use the hashtag #cbmath.
4) Share a lesson or strategy in a follow up blog post with how you used the information you learned.
