Ready to take your math instruction to the next level? Join us for a dynamic, two-part, 90-minute workshop where you'll learn how to harness the power of AI—specifically ChatGPT—to design and refine math tasks that truly challenge students' thinking.

In this hands-on session, you'll:

• Explore the Math Task Analysis Guide*  to evaluate the cognitive demand of tasks
• Use AI to analyze and elevate existing or in-progress math tasks
• Learn how to prompt AI to iterate toward rigorous, student-centered learning opportunities

Whether you're enhancing lessons or creating from scratch, you'll leave with practical strategies and tools to ensure your math tasks promote deep reasoning, real-world relevance, and equitable engagement.
