Compared to the traditional fill-in-the-blank note taking methods of middle school math, visual note taking can support student engagement and influence mathematical identity. We explored this idea with our students, as members of the MidSchoolMath Certified Teacher program, and want to share our findings how how this approach impacted student engagement and learning outcomes!
You'll actively engage in the visual note-making process, practicing this strategy using a Core Curriculum by MidSchoolMath lesson to gain a deeper understanding of its structure and application. You'll leave equipped with strategies to integrate visual note-making in your teaching practices, enhancing student engagement and comprehension. You'll also receive access to digital resources to adapt this process for your students, with any math lesson from any curriculum!
