Make Math REAL (a partnership between SSU and the Lawrence Hall of Science at UC Berkeley) will develop and test maker-based math education curriculum for fourth and fifth grades. These Maker Learning Cycles help students see math as a tool for making sense of the world, and to understand their own power to use math to solve authentic problems. Specific goals include increased persistence in STEM among English learner students, and improved ability for teachers to see capacities of their students.
