Secondary Distinguished Speaker- Pam Harris Secondary Problem Strings

The Distinguished Speakers in Math series provides subject experts who will address relevant issues and hot topics in the field of mathematics.

Participants will deepen their content knowledge, add new ideas to their toolkit of resources, and learn engaging strategies that can be implemented immediately in the math classroom.

Pamela Weber Harris is the new lead author of Discovering Advanced Algebra, and author of Building Powerful Numeracy for Middle & High School StudentsLessons & Activities for Building Powerful Numeracy, and Building Powerful Numeracy: A Facilitator’s Guide. A former secondary mathematics teacher, Pam currently teaches at Texas State University, is a K-12 mathematics education consultant, a T³ (Teachers Teaching with Technology) Instructor, and an author and coauthor of several professional development workshops. Pam presents frequently at conferences.  Her particular interests include numeracy, sequencing tasks, technology, assessment, and vertical connectivity in curricula in schools K-12.


We are excited to have Pam join us for a day of working with Secondary Math Number Strings.  She believes that the sequence of activities is as important as the activities themselves.  Math class should be an activity of constructing mathematical ideas as they arise out of real-world situations.
