Pre-Test
Background
• Students in the public schools are more
involved with technology than ever before.
• Over 250 million Americans now subscribe
to a cellular-phone service—82.4%.
• Quadrupled from 1997.
• Almost all children in the U.S. have access
to a mobile device.
Background
• Mobile device ownership ages 4-14 doubled
since 2005.
• 54% of 8-to-12-year-olds will have cell
phones within the next three years.
• More than 10% of 4- and 5-year-olds use a
cell phone.
Background
• Among students, more than half said they
would "use technology more easily at school if
they could use their own laptop, cell phone or
mobile device to work on projects, access
related software applications and the Internet,
and communicate with classmates." (Cell
phone ownership was reported by 67% of high
school students and 52% of middle school
students.)

students.)
Background
Therefore:
This is the year when social
networking-not the laptop-will
emerge as the learning tool for the
class room.
Focus of this workshop
• Math-Ese 5.0 will seek to address these challenges and will
concentrate on the use of, and training in, the emerging
technology available to mathematics teachers and students.
– Additional areas of focus include Information
Literacy and Evaluating Websites
– Math Content—Multiplication and its
Connection to Other Math Areas as well as
beyond the Math Classroom
– Library Visit to View Math Books
Objectives
Participants will
1. develop higher-level knowledge of making
connections to mathematics,
2. develop higher-level knowledge of
Information Literacy as it applies to
mathematics,
3. develop strategies for recognizing and using
connections among mathematics ideas,
Objectives
4. develop strategies for recognizing and
applying mathematics in contexts outside of
mathematics
5. create assessment instruments to measure the
increase of student mathematical knowledge,
6. analyze student achievement data and
increase their reflective practices to improve
instructional strategies,
Objectives
7. develop presentations using technology
tools to communicate mathematical
connections in their classrooms that they
will share with peers, and
8. the professional development strategies,
specific workshop activities, and
participant findings will be shared with
other Oklahoma school districts.
Objectives
• All students in the schools of the participating
teachers will show improvement in their ability
to comprehend mathematical connections
appropriate to their grade level as measured by
a teacher made pre-post test.
• Director of the seminar will compile and share
results of the project through presentations and
publications as well as publishing the
information on the “Tool Kit” web site.
Benefits of the Workshop
• Lesson plans aligned to P.A.S.S.
• Increased ability to analyze students’
achievement data
• Training in the use of Social
Networking tools for the teaching of
mathematics
