For many teachers, a common instructional strategy is to teach to the middle in hopes of providing an education to the broadest student group possible.
The stack of papers to be graded seems to grow every time you turn your back.
Answering a call to seek out new ideas for improving mathematics education and test classroom innovations, 44 teacher-researchers helped launch CPM’s Teaching Redesign Corps 3.0 this summer
As technology continues to pervade all levels of our lives, new possibilities for communication consistently materialize.
One of the most exciting ideas behind the CPM curriculum is that it is designed and/or tested by teachers in the classroom.
For the second time in less than a year, CPM’s idea engine roared to life as the Teaching Redesign Corps version 2.0 crossed the starting line in Sacramento during the final week of June.

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.
