    Abstract:

    About 59% of adult education students function between 4th and 9th grade. In order to have efficient success with these “middle-level” learners, programs need systems and methods designed specifically for these students. These learners (4th-9th) require a special strategy. Each student requires an effective individualized approach for their specific academic and emotional needs. Instructional systems in the middle levels can impact long-term success by ensuring fluency of basic skills competencies before advancement, developing independence and confidence, and by incorporating time into instruction and assessment. Join this session to explore methods from Pace Learning Systems designed specifically for the middle-level learner since 1977.

    Abstract:

    Order of Operations: Sometimes, Always or Never? Many of us learned that the "Order of Operations" as a random rule someone made up, and we all have to follow it to get the same answer. As we dig into math, specifically using the mathematical shifts of the College and Career Readiness Standards, we look at things from a very different perspective.  We no longer need to accept the order of operations as the rule, simply "because", instead let’s investigate it and find some meaning. In this session, we will use our mathematical properties (commutative properties, associative properties, distributive property, etc) to explore our basic operations. With a solid mathematical foundation we will then look at "PEMDAS" in the context of the mathematical shift of rigor.
