We wish to bring to your attention an exciting Summer Professional
Development Institute on mathematics. These Intensive Immersion Institutes
(I^3) from EduTron will be conducted by Dr. Andrew Chen, Dr. George
Johnston, and Prof. Elaine Previte. The Institutes will start in early June
and spaces are limited; please act now: apply online and also forward to
your math colleagues.

The Institute is designed to assist teachers to advance their deep
understanding of important topics and their conceptual foundations, and to
craft their pedagogy from that deep understanding.

Upon successful completion of an Institute, participants will obtain 67.5
PDPs at no cost. Graduate credits from Fitchburg State College are optional.
The best part, however, is the content gains and personal growth.
