Professional Development
Empowering Educators to Transform Math Learning
At STEMULATE Solutions, we believe professional development (PD) should go beyond compliance and content—it should spark reflection, drive transformation, and build capacity. Our PD programs equip educators with the tools, strategies, and mindset shifts needed to make math meaningful, relevant, and rigorous for all students.
Grounded in our MASTER framework (Making Academics Social, Transformative, Engaging, and Rigorous), our workshops are designed to create classrooms where students feel confident, connected, and capable.
What Makes Our PD Different?
Culturally Responsive & SEL-Integrated
We help educators make meaningful connections between curriculum and students’ lived experiences.
Math-Focused and Standards-Aligned
Every session builds both pedagogical and content knowledge, ensuring alignment with local and national standards.
Interactive and
Reflective
Educators engage in hands-on activities, case studies, peer discussion, and practice-based planning.
Flexible
Delivery
Sessions are available in-person, virtually, or in hybrid formats—offered as single-day intensives or multi-session series.
Signature Workshops
Math is Emotional
Explore the emotional landscape of math learning. Teachers unpack their own experiences with math, learn how emotions impact student performance, and implement strategies to create emotionally safe, math-positive classrooms.
Ethnomathematics: Culture in the Classroom
Introduce students to math concepts through diverse cultural and historical lenses. This workshop helps educators integrate global math practices into lessons, deepening relevance and connection without compromising rigor.
Equity in Equations
A deep dive into the intersections of identity, access, and expectations in math education. Teachers explore data, bias, and systemic barriers, then develop strategies to foster equitable participation and achievement.
Trauma-Informed Math Instruction
Equip educators with the tools to recognize and respond to trauma’s impact on learning—while maintaining academic expectations. Includes guidance on co-regulation, de-escalation, and classroom structures that promote stability and growth.
From Compliance to Connection
Reframe classroom management by focusing on connection, engagement, and restorative practices. Teachers learn how to build authentic relationships that support both student behavior and academic performance.
