This video segment from Evolution: "Darwin's Dangerous Idea," together with interviews with Daniel Dennett and James Moore, depicts Darwin struggling with publicizing his revolutionary theory.

Dash for Dogs: Standard 8.F.2 - Compare properties of two functions each represented in a different way. Compare properties of two functions, each represented in a different way (algebraically, graphically, numerically in tables, or by verbal descriptions). For example, given a linear function represented by a table of values and a linear function represented by an algebraic expression, determine which function has the greater rate of change.
This formative assessment exemplar was created by a team of Utah educators to be used as a resource in the classroom. It was reviewed for appropriateness by a Bias and Sensitivity/Special Education team and by state mathematics leaders. While no assessment is perfect, it is intended to be used as a formative tool that enables teachers to obtain evidence of student learning, identify assets and gaps in that learning, and adjust instruction for the two dimensions that are important for mathematical learning experiences (i.e., Standards for Mathematical Practice, Major Work of the Grade).

Data Analysis and Instructional Support Planning with Acadience Math Results is a guiding document that suggests guiding questions to analyze a student's performance, not just the score, on each measure, as well as targeted learning intention examples, and intervention resource examples.

This microcredential represents a teacher’s ability to understand and respond to progressions related to data by planning and implementing instruction based on the Standards for Mathematical Practice and Effective Mathematics Teaching Practices. It involves selecting, using, and adapting mathematics curricula and teaching materials, including the integration of mathematical tools and technology, as well as using and analyzing formative and summative assessments to determine where students are in learning of data. This microcredential is the fifth of five in the Elementary Mathematics Endorsement: Understand and Implement Concepts of Measurement Stack. These microcredentials can be earned in any order.
