Originally featured in 09-30-2016 Scout Report, the Global Math Department has continued to add content and recently announced that their newsletter is back for the 2018-2019 school year.
The Global Math Department is an informal network of mathematics instructors who met online (many blog about their instructional techniques and are active on Twitter) and decided to create a series of free, open webinars designed for use by other instructors. These webinars cover topics such as coding in math class and teaching students to make mathematical connects. Instructors can participate in live webinars each Tuesday evening at 9:00 PM EST; alternatively, anyone may view recordings of all past webinars on this website. To learn about upcoming webinars, one can check out the website's calendar. The Global Math Department also publishes a weekly online newsletter that highlights articles related to math instruction and features digital tools that can be used in the classroom. In addition to curriculum and instruction ideas, there are also many tips about blogging and using Twitter on this website.
