Summer math workshops at KU will help elementary, secondary teachers improve math teaching
By Sarah Davis Kansan staff writer
Kansas teachers will participate in workshops this summer at KU to enhance the quality of mathematics classes being taught in schools.
Two workshops will be offered. Mathematics with manipulatives, a one-week workshop, is for those who teach kindergarten through sixth grade. Kansas Mathematics Workshop for Secondary Teachers, a four-week program, will involve teachers in seventh through 12th grades.
Josef Dorfmeister, professor of mathematics, is co-director of the secondary workshop and director of the elementary workshop.
He said that all teachers should go through these types of workbooks.
"This is an operation that is designed for teachers," he said. "We want to help teachers to become familiar with applications of mathematics and new topics of math. We
want them to get a little additional background."
Three instructors from the University of Kansas, Lawrence High School and Shawnee Mission Northwest High School will teach 22 teach secondary workshop. It will take place from June 17 to July 12 in Kansas City.
The secondary workshop is in its third year. In the past, topics have included discrete math, geometry and history of math. This year, the workshop will concentrate on statistics with an emphasis on application.
"These texts now show up in the new school textbooks," he said. "And we want to help teachers get ready for this."
Dorfmeister said the topics were being discussed because they were both relevant to the group.
Teachers also will be exposed to business representatives. A seminar by a Marion Merrrell Dow Inc. official and a tentative trip to Wichita to tour
the Boeing Commercial Airplane facilities are planned.
The elementary workshops are new this year and emphasize manipulatives, which are hands-on activit- tious such as using blocks to learn math.
About 40 grade school teachers plan to participate in the workshop.
Four KU professors and seven elementary teachers from Lawrence schools will be teaching topics such as measurement and patterns and relationships.
Jan Dicker, a first- and second-grade teacher at Grant Elementary School in Lawrence, said she was looking forward to the new ideas in math that she would help teach.
"The most important thing is there is a real movement away from having kids work in workbooks," she said. "Young children are now taught in an activity-based, concrete modeling environment."
