Online Overview
Join Dr. Jo Boaler, Cathy Williams, and the youcubed team for a two-day interactive online workshop exploring a Mathematical Mindset approach.
This workshop introduces educators to a Mathematical Mindset approach that can be implemented across all grade levels to transform students’ experiences with mathematics. Grounded in research on brain plasticity and learning, the session challenges common myths about who can succeed in math and instead emphasizes that all students can grow and achieve at high levels.
Participants will explore how to create a Mindset Culture, with classroom environments that value sense-making, multiple strategies, and productive struggle—helping students develop confidence, curiosity, and resilience. Through engaging tasks, visual mathematics, and “teaching moves” across grade levels, educators will experience how visual representations and connections support deep, meaningful mathematical understanding, and consider how these approaches can be brought into their own classrooms.
The workshop also focuses on practical, in-the-moment teaching moves that promote positive mathematical identities and agency. Teachers will learn how to pose open, low-floor/high-ceiling tasks, respond to student thinking in ways that extend understanding, and encourage collaboration and discourse. Attention will be given to equitable practices that broaden participation and disrupt traditional hierarchies in math classrooms.
By the end of the session, participants will leave with adaptable strategies, ready-to-use activities, and a clear vision for cultivating mathematical mindsets in all students, regardless of grade level or prior achievement.
The workshop begins at 9:00 am each day and ends at 3:00 pm each day.

Frequently Asked Questions
All registered participants will receive a Zoom link and password by email at least one week before the workshop and the day before the workshop.
After the event, we’ll send a follow-up email to all participants, even those who couldn’t attend live, with a recording and other workshop resources. This recording will remain available for one year following the event.
Each participant must join the workshop from their own device with the Zoom link we will provide. If you wish to register multiple people from the same school or district, please use the “Get Tickets” button to create a group order. During checkout, you’ll provide each attendee’s name and email so they can receive individual access.
Yes. Participants in youcubed virtual workshops receive Professional Development Hours (PDHs), verified by a certificate of completion emailed after the event. As a general guideline, 10 PDHs are typically considered equivalent to 1 Continuing Education Unit (CEU), though this may vary by institution.
PDHs are awarded by Youcubed, which is part of Stanford University. Please note that PDHs and CEUs cannot be applied toward any Stanford University degree. The transfer or acceptance of PDHs or CEUs is at the discretion of the receiving institution or organization.
All sales are final, but we understand that unexpected situations can come up. If you’d like to request a refund or transfer of ticket, please email pdinfo@youcubed.org with a brief explanation. While we can’t guarantee a refund, we’ll review your request thoughtfully and get back to you as soon as possible.
