What is Mathematics Teachers in Transition (The Studies in Mathematical Thinking and Learning Series) about?
<p>This book addresses the need of professional development leaders and policymakers for scholarly knowledge about influencing teachers to modify mathematical instruction to bring it more in alignment with the recommendations of the current reform movement initiated by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics. The book presents: <p>• theoretical perspectives for studying, analyzing, and understanding teacher change; <p>• descriptions of contextual variables to be considered as one studies and attempts to understand teacher change; and <p>• descriptions of professional development programs that resulted in teacher change. <p>One chapter builds a rationale for looking to developmental psychology for guidance in constructing models of reconstructing new forms of mathematical instruction. Another highlights the relevance to mathematics teacher development of research-based knowledge about how children construct mathematical ideas. Other chapters explore the relationships between the various contexts of schooling and instructional change. Included also are chapters that describe and analyze major reform efforts designed to assist teachers in modifying their ins
