Educational technology will be used to empower teachers, students, and other stakeholders to gain the knowledge and skills needed to adapt, create, consume, and connect responsibly and ethically with the broader world in preparation for meaningful life opportunities.

In this interactive session, we will explore how to make abstract mathematical concepts tangible for K-5 students using hands-on manipulatives. We will discuss strategies for using tools like base ten blocks, fraction tiles and patter blocks to transform students from passive learners into active investigators. The presentation will model how to facilitate studdent-led discovery and foster collaborative problem-solving to build a deeper, conceptual understanding of topics like place value, addition, and fractions.
