A Rockin’ Model for Accelerating Recovery in Algebra Readiness at Scale

This edWeb podcast is sponsored by Muzology.The edLeader Panel recording can be accessed here.Join this edWeb podcast to learn how you can accelerate recovery in algebra readiness. During the pandemic, learning loss in math was two times more pronounced than for any other subject; for students from challenged environments, learning loss was even more severe. However, students who used Muzology, a music-based approach to math instruction (used by students in grades 5-10), demonstrated gains in math proficiency. This rockin’ panel, moderated by #Edchat Co-Founder Tom Whitby, shows you how to achieve the same results using this highly scalable, evidence-based model to math recovery. If you’ve ever noticed that students struggle with learning yet know every word to their favorite songs…that’s because music activates brain regions critical for successful learning. This edWeb podcast brings together:Dr. Lana Israel, a global learning expert and CEO of Muzology, to share the neuroscience and data behind music-based learning. Hall STEAM Magnet High School (AR) Math Department Chair, Shirley Forehand, to show how middle and high school teachers can easily integrate this ESSER-aligned targeted intervention into their math instruction; her students achieved impressive two-to-three year increases in learning growth on NWEA MAP® Growth™ assessments during the pandemic.Mathematics Supervisor for Knox County Schools (TN), Gary Petko, who assisted in writing the K-12 Tennessee Math Standards, to discuss ways to successfully implement music-based math instruction districtwide—for summer programs and during the academic year.Special guest star Chris Blue, Season 12 Winner of The Voice, to provide unique insight into ways that music drives student engagement and motivation. This edWeb podcast is of interest to all leaders who are focusing on accelerating math recovery and developing programs to get ALL students algebra ready! MuzologyMuzology’s mission is to enable ALL learners to optimize their potential.Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.
