Professional Development
Teacher training is a major component of The Infinity Project.
In addition to arming you with a world-class curriculum and classroom
tools, The Infinity Project provides new teachers with a couple
of week-long, highly interactive Infinity Project Professional
Development Institutes during the summer at one of our affiliate
locations around the country.
The training programs cover every area of The Infinity Project
curriculum and gives hands-on instruction in using the text, the
technology kit and all hardware and software. On top of that,
teachers have the opportunity to network with other Infinity Project
teachers to share ideas.
Prior to attending these courses, The Infinity Project offers
a professional development institute that covers the math concepts
covered in the curriculum. This course is provided to teachers
who wish to refresh their math skills.
After training, teachers have instant access to a special teachers-only
Infinity Project website that contains discussion groups, sample
exercises and much more - a wealth of resources to help you maximize
the Infinity Project experience for your students.
