The event was an exciting opportunity for the students to attend sessions, network and visit with exhibitors to see what current K-12 educators are doing in their classrooms across the state. These students will be student teaching in the spring 2023 semester and leading their own lessons. Attending conferences such as these, help students learn even more beyond what they can learn in the classroom.

Heather Barker, assistant professor of mathematics and statistics, also attended the conference. This is a very popular conference in the mathematics community and has not been held for the past two years in person due to the pandemic.
