When it comes to maximizing your [ST Math](https://www.stmath.com/?_ga=2.102928960.1531323357.1648230576-483145629.1648230576) implementation, providing your educators with added support from ST Math’s professional learning (PL) team can give your school or district greater learning outcomes. In fact, a national evaluation of schools leveraging ST Math’s professional learning saw a 30.29% increase in average weekly minutes per student and a 21.38% increase in average weekly puzzles per student compared to schools that didn't receive ST Math PL. 

With the help of a dedicated ST Math trainer, our PL curriculum will take your teachers from getting started, through using data to get the best results, to how to support positive habits of mind during ST Math time and beyond. If you're curious about investing in PL for your school or district, here are a few compelling reasons you should consider scheduling a professional learning session with your staff today!

## Learn From the ST Math Experts

Each PL session is delivered by an experienced [ST Math team member](https://www.stmath.com/professional-learning#team). Because many of them are former math teachers and school administrators, they understand your team’s needs and the challenges you might encounter when first using ST Math. Also, seasoned ST Math facilitators can help you expand your program knowledge by offering research insights and tips from product specialists and instructional design gurus. 

> I love the brain research and engagement strategies embedded into the training. It gave me great ideas to take back to my classroom and start using immediately.

- 3rd grade teacher, Ohio

## Dive into Spatial-Temporal (ST) Reasoning

The "ST" in ST Math stands for [spatial-temporal reasoning](https://2024.mindresearch.org/blog/science-of-spatial-temporal-mathematics) which involves transforming, relating, and comparing physical and mental images in space and time. For example, the [Foundations of ST Math (PL100)](https://play.stmath.com/raft/resources/cortex/instructor_led_pl_catalog.pdf?_ga=2.198800815.1015615779.1648498231-349342863.1648498231) session will take you through the various dimensions of our pedagogy, showing you the logic behind our grade-level games and how to apply this neuroscience-based theory and practice in your classroom. You'll even have the chance to go through sample games and learn how to facilitate student thinking.

## Master the Tech 

ST Math has robust reporting capabilities that help [personalize instruction](https://2024.mindresearch.org/blog/using-your-st-math-console-for-personalized-learning) at the student or class level. In [Monitoring & Supporting Students in ST Math (PL102)](https://play.stmath.com/raft/resources/cortex/instructor_led_pl_catalog.pdf?_ga=2.79920471.1531323357.1648230576-483145629.1648230576), teachers will learn how to interpret ST Math data and design an action plan to get struggling students back on track. They’ll also discover how to facilitate student learning by asking the right questions that will guide students' thinking throughout each challenge. In addition, the ST Math design team consistently adds and updates product features to enhance the learning experience. Attending this session will keep you up-to-date on the latest program developments to ensure you're getting the most out of your ST Math data. 

> The training was very engaging. Great job! I felt like you reaffirmed much of what I already believed about math learning for students, plus showed me some practical ways to tap into that and leverage it with students.

- 2nd grade teacher, Washington
