CARNEGIE LEARNING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

Math Professional Development

Best practice Implementation of Carnegie Learning Solutions

Carnegie Learning curricula are powerful tools for teaching and learning mathematics. Independent studies show that our research-based approach significantly improves student motivation, engagement, and achievement. To ensure that every implementation of Cognitive Tutor® software and Carnegie Learning textbooks yields successful results, Carnegie Learning offers a comprehensive Professional Development program, delivered by Certified Implementation Specialists (CIS) using best practices, knowledge of our curricula and years of classroom mathematics experience.

Our Professional Development programs provide teachers with the experience, insight, and support needed to grow as more reflective practitioners. Our emphasis is on aligning teaching to learning using standardsbased curriculum, student-centered instruction, and the integration of technology. The workshops emphasize Learning by Doing™ where the role of the teacher is to facilitate student interaction, communication and problem solving.
