Darkness and Hope:

Michael will speak to us in a way that he says may change your life, or even save your life. We are pretty sure you will never see mental illness the same way and we are positive you have never heard anyone talk about it the way Michael does. The pandemic has left many of us wondering- am I okay? Should I be seeking help, and if so, am I ashamed to ask for it?

Yes, you are a math person! Enhancing a math learning culture in our schools.

Let’s create environments where all students see themselves as capable mathematics learners! Research emphasizes the importance of supporting learners in developing a positive identity as a mathematics learner.  Related, the current Ontario elementary and Grade 9 math curricula highlight the relationship between Social Emotional Learning Skills (SEL) and the development of mathematics understanding.  This presentation focuses on creating learning environments in our schools that support all learners to be capable mathematics learners.
