Heidelberg University Council of Teachers of Mathematics (HUCTM) is a student affiliate of the Ohio Council of Teachers of Mathematics. HUCTM grants Heidelberg teacher candidates many opportunities for top-notch experiences in the classroom, attending professional conferences, and taking on leadership roles. Our vision is to be a distinguished team of inspiring Heidelberg University mentors who lead empowering, engaging, and memorable mathematical learning experiences for communities seeking to create high-energy, positive learning environments. We strive to achieve our vision primarily through hosting Math Camps at local schools in the community.
Each Math Camp leads children through an engaging, empowering, and inspiring mathematical journey. Games, art, history, and dance spark children's mathematical curiosity, enabling them to uncover the concepts, patterns, and relationships behind classroom mathematics instruction. Heidelberg teacher candidates gain confidence, knowledge, and innovative ideas that will strengthen their teaching practices. HUCTM is continually working with the community to enhance educational experiences, leaving a lasting impact on all children.
