Date:      Tuesday 14th January 2025
Time:      7 - 8 pm
Venue:   Online via Zoom

Target Audience:  Junior Cycle Maths Teachers & Leaving Cert Ordinary Level Teachers

In this webinar, we will explore innovative approaches for teaching algebra, focusing on the use of diagnostic assessment tools and physical and virtual manipulatives. We will examine how these tools can effectively identify students' misconceptions and discuss strategies for using this information to improve instructional outcomes. Special attention will be given to interactive resources such as PhET simulations, Polypad, and algebra tiles. Throughout the webinar, we will discuss how these resources can be integrated into your teaching to help students master algebra through a deeper, more thorough understanding.
