Join EDC at the 2013 National Council of Supervisors of Mathematics Annual Conference and National Council of Teachers of Mathematics Research Pre-session (April 15–17) and National Council of Teachers of Mathematics Annual Meeting (April 17–20). EDC researchers will present sessions on the Common Core State Standards, algebraic thinking, curriculum implementation, meeting the needs of at-risk algebra students, effective professional development, supporting English learners, and other topics. If you plan to attend, be sure to get to an EDC session!
