CCSS-M Learning Task Swap Meet 2013


Second Annual CCSS-M Learning Task Swap Meet
held during the 2013 AMTE Conference
Friday, January 25th, 7:30 - 8:45 PM
Rozen Plaza Hotel, Grand Ballroom Foyer

AMTE seeks to support members as they engage pre-service and in-service teachers in learning tasks focused on the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSS-M). One initiative is to create a mechanism for members to share learning tasks that they have used that focus pre-service and/or in-service teachers as they develop instruction designed to implement the CCSS-M.

We are pleased to announce that the CCSS-M Learning Task Swap Meet will take place for the 2nd year. It will be held during the 2013 AMTE Conference on Friday evening after dinner in the Grand Ballroom Foyer from 7:30 - 8:45 PM.

AMTE members who have a learning task to share are invited to participate in the swap meet. In order to facilitate the organization of the swap meet, please provide general information about the learning task you will share by completing this brief survey. Thank you.

Connections

Timely, important updates for mathematics teacher educators.

As we move through the Spring semester, this issue of AMTE Connections highlights the many ways our community continues to learn from and support one another. In his presidential message, Farshid Safi reflects on the energy of the 2026 AMTE Annual Conference in Portland, OR and invites us to continue leading as a diverse community of scholars committed to strategic collective action. In this issue, you will find updates from several AMTE committees, opportunities for professional learning, and invitations to get involved—whether through contributing to the Tech Talk blog, attending upcoming webinars, or learning about new membership initiatives. We are also excited to feature articles that explore important aspects of mathematics teacher education, from helping preservice teachers interpret mathematical symbols, to designing meaningful mathematics tasks, to learning from program graduates to strengthen elementary mathematics teacher preparation. You will also find highlights from the Portland conference and the latest episodes from the Teaching Math Teaching podcast. Thank you to all who contributed to this issue and to the many members whose work continues to strengthen our AMTE community.
