Our program equip teachers with the necessary knowledge and skills to engage students in meaningful mathematics learning experiences. Activities are designed to improve teachers" content knowledge, pedigogy, and knowledge of mathematical standards in Texas.

 

Accomplishments

The Region 16 Collaborative for Excellence in Mathematics Teaching is continuing to grow in membership. Participating teachers are acquiring skills to become mathematical leaders on their campus and in their district. The partnership has opened lines of communication and collaboration among teachers in rural areas often isolated by size and location.
