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.
