This guide explores the Teaching of Robust Understanding of Mathematics (TRU Math) framework, which teaches math concepts through content, cognitive demand, equitable access to content, agency, authority and identity, and formative assessment. Supporting documents describe the TRU framework, professional development tools, and rubric. This framework aims to engage students through collaborative reflection and to improve overall classroom instruction.
