Participants in Professional Learning of Inspirations & Ideas will be immersed in a CPM classroom setting to experience the curriculum from the perspective of both learner and instructor. The course will include a course overview, exposure to course mathematics, preparing to teach the course, lesson planning strategies, teaching strategies for the student-centered classroom, and other ancillary features. The course philosophy, design, and pedagogical approach will be experienced and explained. Learning in this course will be a partnership between the course instructors along with a cohort of Inspirations & Ideas teachers from across the country. Because one of CPM's core beliefs is that learning, change, and proficiency takes time, this course begins in the summer and continues throughout the academic year with follow-upwebinars, small group cohorts, and ongoing opportunities for collaboration and support.
