This document summarizes key aspects of technology-supported Common Core State Standards (CCSS) mathematics teaching. It outlines instructional shifts in the CCSS to focus strongly on core content, ensure coherence across grades, and emphasize rigor. It describes college and career readiness anchor standards and eight standards for mathematical practice. The document provides examples of how various digital tools can support each of the eight practices, such as using Khan Academy to access external resources, Geogebra to explore mathematical relationships, and Google Docs to collaborate. It stresses the importance of digital citizenship and modeling appropriate Internet use.

2. Technology Supported CCSS
Key Take-Away’s
 All teachers are teachers of literacy.
 It is important to unpack the standards and
understand their structure.
 The standards are not the curriculum; they are
focused on outcomes.
 Important 21st Century skills are embedded into
the standards.
 Instead of asking: What will we teach and when
should we teach it? Ask: Having learned key
content, what will students be able to do with
it?

3. Instructional Shifts
 FOCUS strongly where the Standards focus. Narrow,
deeper standards with the goal of a solid conceptual
understanding, high level of procedural skill and
fluency, problem solving and application.
 COHERENCE across and within grades. Each standard is
not a new event, but an extension of previous learning.
 RIGOR in conceptual understanding, fluency, application
and deep understanding. Math is seen as more than a
set of discrete procedures.

4. College and Career Readiness Anchor
Standards
 Student who meet the standards…
 Demonstrate independence
 Build strong content knowledge
 Respond to the varying demands of audience, task, purpose
and discipline
 Comprehend as well as critique
 Value evidence
 Use technology and digital media strategicallly and
capably.

5. Standards for Mathematical Practice
 Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
 Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
 Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of
others.
 Model with mathematics.
 Use appropriate tools strategically.
 Look and make use of structure.
 Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
 Attend to precision.

14. Take Safety Seriously
 Take Safety Seriously
Support safe and appropriate
use of the Internet (SafeKids,
NetSmartz, Digital Citizenship)
 Make “Appropriate Use”
Explicit
Provide instruction on
Netiquette, intellectual
property/copyright, and
plagiarism. (Netiquette,
Creative Commons, Anti-
Plagiarism, Dupli Checker)
