Designing Authentic Math Tasks

This mini-course will explore how to promote greater engagement, learner independence, and deeper learning through authentic learning tasks for the 9-12 math classroom. Through this course, we will create strategies for engaging students in content by infusing real-world elements (current events, their lives, or STEM concepts) to develop authentic tasks. Through the use of authentic tasks, you will empower students to develop a deeper understanding of class content, increase their engagement, and support their continued growth and problem solving.
