Go Further: Two- to Four-Day Services

Two- to Four-Day Services
You need specialized professional learning services to continue deepening your expertise in DNA Mathematics.


Make sense of mathematics for teaching in an intensive and collaborative setting. In this institute, teachers will become the learners of the mathematics that they teach.




Apply a deep understanding of mathematics content to create end-of-unit assessments, engage students in tasks with high cognitive demand, assess student work, and implement productive homework plans.



By observing instruction in select classrooms in your school, a DNA Mathematics associate will determine areas of strength and areas of growth for each lesson observed based on the TQE process. Action items will be developed and shared with the teacher based on desired outcomes in instructional shifts.



Practice and refine mathematical tasks with a DNA Mathematics expert who will facilitate team discussions and provide feedback.



Gain better understanding of gender biases related to mathematics and improve educational experiences for girls.



Discover a clear path for improving the quality of mathematics instruction at any grade level. Explore task potential, examine successful implementation of tasks, facilitate mathematical discussions, and use evidence of student learning.


Sustain: Multi-Day Services

Multi-Day Services
You’re a high-functioning team looking to sustain your DNA Mathematics expertise, leadership, and achievement.


Strengthen practices and processes with just-in-time, in-class support. Participants will observe model teaching, engage in collaborative planning, and receive guidance during teacher observations and evaluations to move mathematics instruction forward.




Tell us your goals and challenges, and we'll develop a customized learning plan specially designed to support teachers of mathematics. Our experts will first help teachers deepen their understanding of K−12 mathematics content and then support them to effectively teach with focus and rigor.




Provide your collaborative teams with on-demand access to instructional videos from the creators of DNA Mathematics. These videos help create a shared vision of classrooms where teachers and students are engaged in meaningful mathematics learning experiences.
