Find more details on all the above at http://education.ti.com
News Features:
1. All the benefits of the T^3(TM) International Conference, but at a location convenient to you. A list of our Regional Conferences can be found at http://education.ti.com/t3/conferences/regional/regional.html.
2. AMTE, the Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators, will hold their seventh annual conference January 30 - February 1, 2003 at the Marriott Atlanta Airport Hotel. Sessions should provide participants the opportunity to examine and discuss current issues in mathematics teacher education and professional development. Proposals should be sent electronically to the DeAnn Huinker, Program Chair, at huinker@uwm.edu.
3. This book provides students with an interesting way to explore math and science concepts. Background information, set-up diagrams, and general instructions with clear calculator keystrokes are given for each activity. Space is provided for students to record data and complete easy-to-follow exercises. Activities include "Pool Plunge: Linear Relationship Between Water Depth and Pressure", "Sour Chemistry: The Exponential pH Change", and "Graph It in Pieces: Piecewise-defined Functions".
4. During this, our first year of preservice technology showcases, we have received a lot of positive feedback. Our program continues to improve and expand. If you are interested in scheduling a mathematics or science technology showcase for your preservice teachers this fall, now is the time to do so. For more information, see http://education.ti.com/educator/support/support.html - c4 New this fall, will be our open house program. We are looking for a few, select universities to provide us with a classroom for the day. In return, we will set up activities using TI Technology and schedule brief presentations throughout the day. We are also interested in universities that will invite students from neighboring campuses to attend. If you would be interested in hosting an Open House, please contact Barbara Ridener at bridener@ti.com.
