ICYMI: December Reflections

Hello, Community Members,

Here are the December Highlights from our community - in case you missed it:

  • Penn State ABE Certificate Spring Courses - if you are interested in obtaining a certificate in Adult Education Penn State has a program for you.
  • 2019 Adult Numeracy Network (ANN) Under 10 Talks - These short videos are a call for action to adult numeracy practitioners and supporters.  These short videos are a great way for you to spread the word.   Come listen to Abby Roza, Patricia Helmuth. Steffany Chaisson, and Christin Eli Smith.
  • Problem: The X Days of Christmas - This discussion focused on unpacking a math problem based on the traditional Christmas song, The 12 days of Christmas.  Come see what other members thought about this problem

Call to Action:   If you have a particular topic you wish to discuss in this community, something you are struggling with, something you need more resources for, or just support from your fellow math educators I want to encourage you to join in the conversation on the Math and Numeracy COP.  Our community is a place practitioners, advocates, researchers, learners, policymakers, and others discuss mathematics and numeracy issues in adult education, including research and evidence-based practices, instructional strategies, and resources.  The community needs your expertise to create a place that is engaging and a resource for others in the field of adult education.  Let's continue our discussions here!

Sincerely,

Brooke Istas
Math and Numeracy Moderator
