We wish to bring to your attention an exciting Summer Professional Development Institute on mathematics. These Intensive Immersion Institutes (I^3) from EduTron will be conducted by Dr. Andrew Chen, Dr. George Johnston, and Prof. Elaine Previte. The Institutes will start in early June and spaces are limited; please act now: apply online and also forward to your math colleagues.
The Institute is designed to assist teachers to advance their deep understanding of important topics and their conceptual foundations, and to craft their pedagogy from that deep understanding.
Upon successful completion of an Institute, participants will obtain 67.5 PDPs at no cost. Graduate credits from Fitchburg State College are optional. The best part, however, is the content gains and personal growth.

*The Institute is funded by the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. Institute partners are: Chelsea Public Schools, EduTron Corporation, and Fitchburg State College.
