Shaping the Future of Math Education

Boost K–8 student engagement and thinking with rigorous, dynamic mathematical conversations. Join us on Thursday, March 27 to discover how to create a math classroom culture where every student's voice is valued, fostering a space of respect and active participation.

Educators who participate in Quality Teaching for English Learners (QTEL) Summer Institutes deepen their capacity to offer quality math learning opportunities for secondary English Learners.

A recent National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine report identifies WestEd's "Making Sense of SCIENCE" and "Pre-K Mathematics" as successful, evidence-based programs for scaling and sustaining innovation to improve STEM education.

How can educators ensure all students have access to rigorous science learning? Equipping school and district leaders with discipline-specific leadership skills can propel large-scale instructional improvement.

A recent WestEd study shows that science curriculum materials that integrate science and literacy can improve 1st graders’ science proficiency, enrich their knowledge and use of science vocabulary, and simultaneously develop their reading skills.

When science teacher Arlene Nicolas wanted to prepare her students for data science careers, she enrolled in a Data Fluency course by WestEd's Making Sense of SCIENCE. The course enhances math and science teachers' data knowledge and improves capacity to support students' data fluency.
