What is the Innovation Math Challenge?
The Innovation Math is a challenge for educators, student teams, gamers, programmers, and anyone who has a great idea to create fun and engaging math educational media.
WGBH Educational Foundation is seeking up to 100 educational media digital resources (videos, games, interactives, infographics, and manipulatives) that are directed towards middle school students and loosely aligned with the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics. The digital resources selected will be showcased on PBS LearningMedia as part of a middle school math resource collection.
WGBH is looking for content that engages a wide range of students by reflecting a wide range of culturally responsive perspectives and learning styles.
Digital resources should be engaging, rich in content and context, and go beyond strictly procedural teaching. In other words, no talking heads.
