THE LEADERSHIP FRAMEWORK THAT EMPOWERS PRINCIPALS TO BUILD MEASURABLE AND SUSTAINABLE WHOLE-SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT.
MathUP Leadership offers a robust set of focused tools to help build capacity in teaching mathematics through professional learning for both teachers and administrators.
Developed by Doug Duff, MathUP Leadership describes a proven process that empowers elementary principals to build a successful math culture across the entire school. MathUP Leadership supports principals in:
- Leading measurable and sustainable whole-school improvement in mathematics
- Gathering, analyzing, and quantifying data to promote whole-school professional learning
- Using a step-by-step process based on evidence and insights drawn from their own students’ learning
Focused Support Where Help Is Most Needed.
MathUP Leadership shows principals where to focus their time so that their efforts are most effective. It answers the most challenging questions elementary principals face when leading whole-school improvement in math. For example, how can I …
- lead a cultural shift in math?
- engage all my teachers from Kindergarten to Grade 8?
- measure and sustain improvement in mathematics?
- know what to focus on mathematically?
- get real data about student learning in my school?
- deepen teacher math expertise and pedagogy?
