Ambitious Math Teaching

Ambitious Teaching is an intentional approach to education that aims to empower all students, regardless of their background, to not only acquire knowledge, but also deeply understand and apply it (Lampert & Graziani, 2009). Ambitious teaching in math goes beyond rote memorization; it empowers students to engage deeply with mathematical ideas and apply them authentically. The PD modules walk high school teachers and math leaders through the practices of ambitious instruction within their own teaching.
