Full Session Description (as long as you would like): 

During the session I will share how I integrate technology into my mathematics classroom to create real-world problem-solving activities that I create with the students.  I use everyday mundane activities and teach the students how to create problems connected to our math standards.  I then help the students make connections to their interests/passions and the mathematics we are learning.
