Go beyond PD day with comprehensive professional learning programs that work. Connected professional learning supports every educator, every day with the tools and resources they need to help all students succeed.
Start a Demo

Create Student-Centered Classrooms with Personalized Professional Learning

We know that students don't all learn the same way or on the same day, so why do we expect educators to? Support both teachers and leaders with a professional learning program that's built from differentiated learning experiences throughout the school year to create meaningful changes for students in every classroom.

Layered Experiences to Support Continuous Learning

Creating district-wide change requires buy-in from all stakeholders, differentiated support for educators, and a clear plan to continuously build upon pedagogical knowledge and practice.

Layering distinct phases into your professional learning plan provides educators with continued support throughout the school year. Educators will engage in in-person, virtual, group, and individual learning experiences that are all designed to help them make the jump from theory to ongoing changes in practice.
Start Building Your PD Plan

Achieve Meaningful Outcomes With Research-Backed PD

Professional learning experiences should end with clear next steps for educators to take. Every BetterLesson learning experience is tied to a measurable outcome that gives educators actionable goals and a clear way to measure progress. Educators will work towards their chosen outcomes throughout the school year as they continually try new strategies, measure the results for students, and use that data to build the next stage of their plan.
Explore Outcomes

Work Towards the Goals of Your District's Strategic Plan

Begin building your new professional learning program by identifying what challenges you'd like to solve in your district. We'll work with you to craft a personalized professional learning plan that's built from the focus areas that align with your district's goals and are key for creating student-centered classrooms.

Access Learning Opportunities When They're Needed the Most

Empower educators to achieve meaningful student outcomes in concrete, practical ways by offering job-embedded learning experiences that are paced throughout the school year and can be applied in the classroom the next day. Combining in-person, virtual, collaborative, and self-directed learning opportunities, we seamlessly personalize our learning session to meet the needs of each teacher, instructional specialist, and district leader. This immersive approach to professional development leads to sustainable change in practice that accelerates outcomes, turning district goals into student growth.

The BL Lab Platform

The BL Lab is at the center of your professional learning program. When all your high-quality learning resources are centralized in one easy to access platform for educators, leaders, and administrators, you close the implementation gap and ensure that district-level innovation truly translates to changes in teacher practice and results for learners.

Educators access learning, engage with their coach, track progress toward their outcomes, and measure their confidence to enact those outcomes in the classroom. Administrators have a complete view of their professional learning programs and dashboards to examine learning progress across individual groups of educators.
Explore the BL Lab

Personalized PD to Support Student-Centered Special Education

In the 2019-2020 school year, the Watervliet City School District identified special education as an area of focus. Special education teachers had shared that general education professional development wasn't meeting their specific needs and did not feel actionable. The district partnered with BetterLesson to develop and implement personalized professional development for all special education teachers through a full year of 1:1, job-embedded, virtual Coaching with BetterLesson's expert educators.
See the Results

Strategies, Resources, and Events From BetterLesson

Create the next generation of resourceful, compassionate, and resilient learners. All professional learning programs should give educators the training, tools, and resources they need to create a culture of student-centered learning in their district so that every child has the chance to succeed.

Mathematics is just one of my passions. As well as teaching Mathematics, MultiMedia, and ICT as my "Day Job", I also work as a Photographer on weekends.

Modern Digital Photograpy involves quite a bit of behind the scenes Mathematics.

This Mathematics includes Geometric Sequences, Polyhedra, Fractions, Geometry, Circle Areas, Angles, Formulas, and Symmetry.

An understanding of this Mathematics can definitely make you a better Photographer, even if it just means you know the best Viewpoints, Angles, and Geometric Composition to use when taking pictures with a Mobile Phone.

I have found understanding the Mathematics of a DSLR Camera really helps me do fast effective problem solving on Photoshoots.

Digital Cameras have preset auto modes which work well in about 80% of situations, but there are other times when a Camera needs to be put into full Manual Mode and some Mathematical Problem Solving invoked.

Here at Passy's World we have produced a comprehensive series of articles on the Mathematics of Photography, including plenty of real life examples as well as selected Videos which can be viewed.

The eight Mathematics of Photography articles are as follows:

- Photo Composition Rules

- Digital Camera Variables

- The ISO Variable

- The Aperture Variable

- The Shutter Speed Variable

- The White Balance Variable

- Combining Variables for Correct Exposure

- Flash Photography and Diffusers

sigma Mathematics and Statistics Support Network

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Mathematics Support is a recognised collective term for extra-curricular mathematics and statistics teaching and learning services in higher education institutions (Samuels and Patel 2010). The term covers activities, facilities and/or resources provided to support and enhance students' learning of mathematics or statistics whilst the student is enrolled on a programme of study at undergraduate or postgraduate level. Such learning support is extra, optional, and non-compulsory. It is designed to assist students in developing mathematical and/or statistical confidence and skills. Usually, no module credit is associated with a student's engagement with a learning support activity.

Sometimes such learning support can be aligned with specific components of their degree course, but its assistance is optional and supplementary (sigma 2011). Samuels and Patel identify the salient features of mathematics support and position it among the other learning experiences provided for students in higher education institutions. There has been a huge growth in mathematics support activity over the last few years as universities have responded to the challenges presented by (a) very diverse student cohorts, and (b) the increasing "quantification" of many disciplines where students might traditionally not have expected to encounter maths or statistics.

In 2008, a report from the Public Accounts Committee urged universities to improve retention by providing 'additional academic support for students, for example those struggling with the mathematical elements of their course'. The establishment of a mathematics and statistics support centre is one way of providing this additional academic support.

The term mathematics and statistics support centre is usually taken to mean a dedicated, physical space in which mathematics and statistics support with tutors is available at specified times. The centre may have learning resources including textbooks, leaflets and computing facilities so that students are encouraged to help themselves and not rely solely on the intervention of a tutor and student workspace to encourage learning communities. It may be in a mathematics (or other) department, a central service such as a library or skills centre or be a peripatetic service visiting student cafes and other venues. Some centres may employ staff dedicated to offering mathematics support whereas others may make use of mathematics and statistics lecturers and postgraduate tutors.

Mathematics and statistics support centres are a relatively new phenomenon - in the 1980s it would be hard to find a mathematics (still less statistics) support centre in a British university. The innovations that sigma has brought about over the past years (see And the winner is...) have played a large part in transforming this with a majority of institutions now offering some sort of support. Although initially many support centres were set up to assist struggling students who were in danger of failing, over the years their remit has expanded and they now provide support to many students who are doing well but want to do even better. A 2010 overview and description of some typical maths support services and some of the issues encountered can be found here .

The sigma Network organises regular networking meetings and events where people working in maths support centres can share ideas and collaborate on the development of best practice. The "events" tab of this website provides further details.
