OUR BENEFICIARIES
This year, 2014-2015, I have wonderful high school math students (grades 9th -12th). Unfortunately, the math skills of many of my students (68%) are below grade level according to state tests. Student work confirms the state test data. Through reflection on student work and research on how to best help my students achieve math literacy and proficiency, I have come to the conclusion, that appropriate technological tools will help them better access the math literacy required to graduate from high school and to achieve success in college and in the work world.
