What Does A MindShift Program Look Like?
At MindShift Learning Center, students:
Investigate activities designed for students’ math understanding.
Work individually, with partners and in small groups.
Share ideas and ask questions, lots of questions!
Build on perseverance, resilience, confidence and tolerance for ambiguity.
Motivating Reluctant Mathematicians
Programs are designed for students who are underconfident in mathematics. Starting with what students understand, we work toward building strong foundations. Students develop mathematical understanding, math language, and effective problem-solving strategies.
Engaging Enthusiastic Mathematicians
Programs are designed for students who are motivated by rich mathematical challenges that go beyond the school curriculum. Through individual and collaborative activities, they continue to develop critical and creative thinking, as well as visual-spatial awareness, while communicating mathematical understanding.
One of the most powerful aspects of MindShift is students sharing ideas while participating in hands-on exploration together.
