September 20, 2006	Using Computer Algebra Systems to Develop Algebraic Habits of Mind NCTM Regional Meeting Algebra is more than just a high school course sequence. Certain habits of mind lead to algebraic proficiency across the grades, and Computer Algebra Systems can help develop these habits.
March 19, 2007	CME Project: Promoting Mathematical Habits of Mind in High School NCSM Annual Meeting This presentation looks at effective approaches to topics across the high school curriculum, including algebra word problems, geometric proofs, mathematical induction, and optimization.
May 14, 2007	Algebra for Teaching—Some Recommendations for Teacher Preparation Critical Issues in Education Workshop: Teaching and Learning Algebra, MSRI Workshop The development of CME Project began in 1992 with a grant from NSF to develop a geometry course, but the basic principles upon which the program rests evolved over nearly four decades.
May 21, 2007	Computer Algebra Systems: Tools for Developing Algebraic Habits of Mind NCTM Annual Meeting
June 16, 2007	Curriculum and Technology: Evolving Together Texas Instruments 4th Annual USACAS Conference EDC and Texas Instruments have enjoyed a close working relationship for nearly 20 years.

September 7, 2007	CME Project Ninth International Conference "Mathematics Education in a Global Community" This talk describes CME Project, an NSF-funded four-year comprehensive high school mathematics curriculum being developed by Education Development Center, Inc.
November 15, 2007	A Day of Mathematics a symposium sponsored by EDC's Center for Mathematics Education and the Massachusetts Department of Elementary & Secondary Education The symposium provided teachers of Algebra 2 and other grade 11–12 high school courses with a chance to
March 1, 2008	Curriculum and Technology: Evolving Together T3 International Conference As CME Project (published by Pearson Education) was developed, the development team found many cases where technology, especially a Computer Algebra System (CAS), enhanced the desire to de
April 9, 2008	Developing Proof throughout High School Mathematics NCTM Annual Meeting Using strategies from a new, NSF-funded curriculum, CME Project, this presentation shows techniques to help students develop and write formal proofs in algebra and geometry, with special a
April 9, 2008	General-Purpose Tools in Mathematics NCTM Annual Meeting For many students, the utility of mathematics lies in a style of work—the habits of mind that allow one to look at the world through a mathematical lens.
April 23, 2008	Beyond Topics: Some Organizing Principles for a Coherent Approach to Algebra, 2008 NCTM Annual Meeting Internet navigation, spreadsheet use, financial decisions, and cell phone programming all require the abilities to reason about calculations, develop algorithms, use symbols, and describe relations
May 2, 2008	Algebra in the Age of CAS: Implications for the High School Curriculum Center for the Study of Mathematics Curriculum (CSMC) Second International Curriculum Conference: Future Curricular Trends in School Algebra and Geometry,
May 14, 2008	Some Organizing Principles for High School Algebra Critical Issues in Education Workshop: Teaching and Learning Algebra An examination of the day-to-day work of high school teachers shows that fundamental ideas and results from abstract algebra, linear algebra, and number theory are useful tools for teaching high sc
June 28, 2008	Algebra in the Age of CAS—Examples from CME Project (and Beyond) USACAS Conference The human mind can establish facts about mathematical objects even when the objects are difficult (or impossible) to write down explicitly.
September 25, 2008	CME Project— Promoting Mathematical Habits of Mind in High School The Future of High School Mathematics Conference The Center for Mathematics Education at the University of Maryland, along with "Math Is More" and a group of progressive curriculum development projects, hosted a conference of leaders in high scho
