Materials and Resources from Marsha Hutzell's Presentation

**Topic: Study Team Strategies**
I have created a classroom where students routinely discuss and discover mathematics by working together in teams of four students. In this presentation, I would like to share strategies for grouping students, expectations for students working in teams, expectations for the teacher in assisting the students, and strategies for organizing the lessons.

Most of the ideas used in a study team learning evironment came from the curriculum used by College Preparatory Mathematics. Visit their home page at www.cpm.org. Resources for using study teams can be found at the Study Team support page at their site: Study Team Support

 * A calculus activity on curve sketching that divides jobs among four group members.[[file:Curve Sketching--Rotation Partner Activity.docx]][[file:Curve Sketching--Rotation Partner Activity.pdf]]
