Lomas, Laurinda – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2017
In this paper, I report on doctoral research in which I studied the changes in mathematical knowledge and beliefs of two Year 5/6 teachers as they implemented a four-week innovative curriculum unit. Such immersion experiences have the potential to develop teachers' understanding of mathematics in the context of the classroom. Year 6 case study…

Tarr, James E.; Ross, Daniel J.; McNaught, Melissa D.; Chavez, Oscar; Grouws, Douglas A.; Reys, Robert E.; Sears, Ruthmae; Taylan, R. Didem – Online Submission, 2010
The Comparing Options in Secondary Mathematics: Investigating Curriculum (COSMIC) project is a longitudinal study of student learning from two types of mathematics curricula: integrated and subject-specific. Previous large-scale research studies such as the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) indicate that numerous variables are…
