Teacher Development

During each academic year, the Cornell Department of Mathematics offers mathematics workshops for teachers who are interested in continuing their professional development. Anyone interested in issues related to the teaching and learning of mathematics is welcome to attend (e.g., teachers, prospective teachers, mathematics graduate and undergraduate students, and mathematicians).  During workshop sessions we examine principles underlying the content of the school mathematics curriculum, including connections with the history of mathematics, technology, and mathematics education research. 

In Spring 2027, the Cornell Department of Mathematics will offer a mathematics teacher workshop in conjunction with the NYS Master Teacher Program (NYSMTP) and the Teacher Center of Central Westchester (TCCW).

Workshop Date:  April 24, 2027

Time:  9:00 – 4:30 pm (breakfast begins at 8:30, lunch will be provided)

Modality:  in-person at Cornell University, with a satellite location set up at TCCW

Credit:  CTLE hours and NYSMTP hours will be awarded
