Measurement Is More Than Being Able to Read a Ruler

Description

In PISA studies, U.S. students are less proficient with measurement than their global counterparts. Why is this? Might it be that measurement is taught as a set of isolated skills, rather than as an interconnected web of complex ideas? In our session, we will explore tasks and routines to help students develop a deep understanding of measurement.
