Algebra 11-12 pre training teacher survey

Hello ASN Teachers:

The purpose of this short survey is to get input from all the teachers participating in the Algebra Success Network before we finalize the agenda for our series. Your responses will help the planning team target the work to your highest priorities. Also, we want to be able to share your expertise so don’t be shy about giving us your name and telling us what manipulatives you are using!

Please complete this survey by 9/20/11. It should take 10 minutes to complete.

Thank you for your time and thoughtful responses.
