  7. The Structure • SUMMER MEETINGS (6/7 – 6/10): • 6/7 – Observe task based lesson with students • Selecting a team and Framework Unit • 6/8 – Evaluating Resources: GPC Frameworks, MOCC, Matt’s • Math Lab’s, Exemplars, Begin Development of Task • 6/9 – Continue Developing Task, Anticipating Student Responses, • Evaluating Task’s Cognitive Demands. • 6/10 – Practice Task with a small group of Students

  8. The Structure • 2010 – 11 School Year • 8 Face to Face Meetings in which your group will • deliver the lesson with debriefing • 8 Online Discussions • Local School Dissemination and Documentation: • Teachers Observe Your Classroom OR • You Teach One Day of their Class
