Math Teachers’ Circle at UCSC

In April 2009, MBAMP was invited by the American Institute of Mathematics (AIM) to form a Math Teachers’ Circle (MTC) at UCSC .

The mission of a Math Teachers' Circle is to promote a culture of enjoyment of mathematics problem solving activities among middle and high school teachers with the expectation that they will bring their enthusiasm back to their classrooms. The Santa Cruz Math Teachers' Circle provides this opportunity to the teachers in the Santa Cruz, as well as, providing a forum where they can meet and discuss curriculum and classroom issues in a relaxed atmosphere.

What: Math Teachers’ Circle (MTC)

The sessions will sometimes be led by a math professor, sometimes by a grade student and sometimes we work through problems one of our group has proposed. All teachers are welcome to attend. These sessions are most applicable for math specialists and middle/high school math teachers. Teachers are encouraged to suggest session topics. Teachers can earn PD units for attendance.

When: The Circle has met since 2009. This year we will meet the 2nd Tuesday of each month (except January).

Where: TBA Participants will host sessions at their school site or other location.

Please, if you have not signed up email and ask to be put on the mailing list.

Check out this website for more about math teacher circles', their history and how they effect the professional development of math teachers.
