Why Should I Apply?
Add+VantageMR® Course 1 (AVMR 1) supports elementary educators in diagnosing and advancing student understanding and numeracy development. Participants leave the course ready to work with students and implement new knowledge in their assessment and teaching practices to meet the needs of a diverse range of students. While content within AVMR 1 addresses elementary mathematics content, educators of all grade levels have found the course beneficial for identifying what students know and what instruction is likely to advance students' knowledge.
