Name: High-Level Algebra and Geometry Tasks: Resources for Both Student and Teacher Learning
ID: m15958
Language: English (en)
Summary: High-level mathematical tasks provide opportunities for students to develop deep mathematical understanding, however, such tasks are difficult for teachers to implement effectively. This module offers practical suggestions as well as four algebra and geometry tasks, and detailed lesson guides, that can support teachers' efforts to provide such opportunities for their students.
