For anyone working with current classroom teachers of math (must be at least 50% classroom based vs coach, admin, etc) the Teacher Leadership Program of the Park City Math Institute has extended applications for this summer's institute. Rather than a single 3-week program, we will be conducting three 1-week programs, and folks may apply for one, two or all three weeks, each of which will engage with a distinct piece of mathematics and aspect of pedagogy.
