Kathy Henderson, our 6th grade math teacher, recently had the opportunity to present at the National Conference for Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) Annual conference in Washington, DC. She co-presented with Jay Chow, Lead Computation Layer Specialist at Desmos Classroom, on how teachers can use the Computation Layer which is the programmable layer in Desmos activities. The Computation Layer is the vehicle for taking students’ responses, showing them in the mathematical context, and providing them with dynamic, interpretive feedback. The goal of Desmos Classroom is to help students discover the joy of learning math through interactive lessons that help improve student outcomes.
