AMTNYS
65 Annual Fall Conference
November 12 -14, 2015
Rochester Riverside Convention Center
Rochester Hyatt Regency Hotel
Featured Speakers
Keynote: Dan Meyer
…Worker, Learner, Go-Getter, Writer, Speaker
As seen on CNN, Good Morning America, Everyday With Rachel Ray, and over
2,000,000 times on TED Talks, Dan Meyer taught high school math and studied math
education at Stanford University. He speaks internationally and works with textbook
publishers, helping them move from education's print past to its digital future. He
was named one of Tech & Learning's 30 Leaders of the Future and an Apple
Distinguished Educator.
Dan proposes that today’s math curriculum is teaching students to expect — and
excel at — paint-by-numbers classwork, robbing kids of a skill more important than solving problems:
formulating them. He shows classroom-tested math exercises that prompt students to stop and think. Dan’s
TED Talk can be viewed here: http://www.ted.com/talks/dan_meyer_math_curriculum_makeover
Keynote: Beyond Relevance & Real World: Stronger Strategies for Student Engagement
Friday, November 13
Math Curriculum Makeover
Friday, November 13
(This will be a 2-hour, 15-minute mini-course.)
Banquet Address: Margaret (Peg) Smith
Peg is a Professor in the School of Education and a Senior Scientist at the Learning
Research and Development Center, both at the University of Pittsburgh.
Peg has authored or coauthored over 75 books and peer-reviewed articles. Her most
recent book, 5 Practices for Orchestrating Productive Mathematical Discussion
(coauthored with Mary Kay Stein), has been the bestselling book at NCTM since its
release in 2011. She is currently the principle investigator for a project that is creating
materials intended to develop teachers’ knowledge related to reasoning and proof
and their ability to support students’ engagement in these mathematical practices.
Peg is currently a member of the Board of Directors of Teachers Development Group. In 2009, Peg received
the award for Excellence in Teaching in Mathematics Teacher Education from the Association of Mathematics
Teacher Educators (AMTE). In 2010 she received the Susan Loucks-Horsley Award from the National Staff
Development Council for her work promoting professional learning in mathematics. She just completed her
term as founding editor of the Mathematics Teacher Educator, a journal co-published by NCTM and AMTE.
Banquet: Teaching Practices that Support Student Understanding and Learning Mathematics
Friday, November 13
(Banquet ticket required.)
Orchestrating Productive Discussions in Math Class: Moving Beyond Showing and Telling
Saturday, November 14
(This will be a 2-hour, 15-minute mini-course.)
NYSED
New York State Education Department (NYSED) representatives will present updates
on the implementation of the Commons Core Learning Standards for Mathematics
(CCLSM). Updates will include module enhancements and guides, 3-8 and Regents
Assessment results, Presidential Awards for Excellence in Mathematics and Science
Teaching (PAEMST), and NYSED plans post-Race to the Top. Because this is the first
year of implementation of CC Algebra 2, special attention will be given to this
course. The panelists will also respond to your pre-submitted questions as well as
questions submitted during the presentation.
In attendance from NYSED will be Craig Blowers, CC Algebra 2 Program Coordinator; Mary Cahill, Director of
Curriculum and Instruction; and John Svendsen, Mathematics Associate in Instructional Services.
