MMAP
What is it?
"Middle School Math through
Applications" (MMAP) situates the math
inside engaging and complex real world
problems, and changes the social order
of the classroom so that students are
active constructors and seekers of
mathematical expertise. Central to
MMAP is the placing of students in
design problems that require the use of
mathematics concepts as tools. The
curriculum includes computer-based tools
and simulations for the students to use.
