Accessibility Policy

CPM Educational Program is committed to ensuring accessibility of its website and online content to people of various abilities. We create our online content with accessibility in mind and continually audit to ensure it conforms to all Level A and AA success criteria of W3C SAI WCAG 2.2. Some examples include keyboard navigation and shortcuts, screen reader support for all content, expanding math symbols, and more. We recognize that accessibility is an ongoing process and we are excited to bring more math to all people. We value your feedback, so please email us at support@cpm.org with any questions or suggestions. 

Accessibility to CPM

CPM’s mission is to empower mathematics students and teachers through exemplary curriculum, professional development, and leadership. We are committed to prioritizing accessibility considerations throughout our products.

Conformance Milestones

Review of accessibility is an embedded practice that occurs throughout our development process. As part of CPM’s commitment to ensuring the best possible accessibility experience, formal assessments are conducted when large additions or changes are made to the system. This is in addition to yearly, scheduled third-party audits.

DateMilestone
November 2021Full internal audit and updates to system to ensure WCAG A and AA conformance
February 2023Internal Review and conformance updates
November 2024Third-party audit
March 2024Third-party attestation of WCAG 2.2 A and AA conformance
March 2025Scheduled third-party audit and attestation

Screen Readers

Windows: We recommend using NVDA with the MathCAT extension (previously MathPlayer) to generate both speech and braille from MathML. 

MacOS: VoiceOver is Apple’s built-in screen reader for Mac. You should be able to navigate our content with voiceover out of the box. 


 

Disclaimer: This policy establishes internal guidelines for the purpose of promoting and advancing digital accessibility at CPM Educational Program. CPM Educational Program reserves the right to modify the policy at any time. The policy is not intended to create, nor does it create, any contractual or other legal obligation on the part of CPM Educational Program.

Foundations for Implementation

This professional learning is designed for teachers as they begin their implementation of CPM. This series contains multiple components and is grounded in multiple active experiences delivered over the first year. This learning experience will encourage teachers to adjust their instructional practices, expand their content knowledge, and challenge their beliefs about teaching and learning. Teachers and leaders will gain first-hand experience with CPM with emphasis on what they will be teaching. Throughout this series educators will experience the mathematics, consider instructional practices, and learn about the classroom environment necessary for a successful implementation of CPM curriculum resources.

Page 2 of the Professional Learning Progression (PDF) describes all of the components of this learning event and the additional support available. Teachers new to a course, but have previously attended Foundations for Implementation, can choose to engage in the course Content Modules in the Professional Learning Portal rather than attending the entire series of learning events again.

Building on Instructional Practice Series

The Building on Instructional Practice Series consists of three different events – Building on Discourse, Building on Assessment, Building on Equity – that are designed for teachers with a minimum of one year of experience teaching with CPM instructional materials and who have completed the Foundations for Implementation Series.

Building on Equity

In Building on Equity, participants will learn how to include equitable practices in their classroom and support traditionally underserved students in becoming leaders of their own learning. Essential questions include: How do I shift dependent learners into independent learners? How does my own math identity and cultural background impact my classroom? The focus of day one is equitable classroom culture. Participants will reflect on how their math identity and mindsets impact student learning. They will begin working on a plan for Chapter 1 that creates an equitable classroom culture. The focus of day two and three is implementing equitable tasks. Participants will develop their use of the 5 Practices for Orchestrating Meaningful Mathematical Discussions and curate strategies for supporting all students in becoming leaders of their own learning. Participants will use an equity lens to reflect on and revise their Chapter 1 lesson plans.

Building on Assessment

In Building on Assessment, participants will apply assessment research and develop methods to provide feedback to students and inform equitable assessment decisions. On day one, participants will align assessment practices with learning progressions and the principle of mastery over time as well as write assessment items. During day two, participants will develop rubrics, explore alternate types of assessment, and plan for implementation that supports student ownership. On the third day, participants will develop strategies to monitor progress and provide evidence of proficiency with identified mathematics content and practices. Participants will develop assessment action plans that will encourage continued collaboration within their learning community.

Building on Discourse

In Building on Discourse, participants will improve their ability to facilitate meaningful mathematical discourse. This learning experience will encourage participants to adjust their instructional practices in the areas of sharing math authority, developing independent learners, and the creation of equitable classroom environments. Participants will plan for student learning by using teaching practices such as posing purposeful questioning, supporting productive struggle, and facilitating meaningful mathematical discourse. In doing so, participants learn to support students collaboratively engaged with rich tasks with all elements of the Effective Mathematics Teaching Practices incorporated through intentional and reflective planning.
