Knotts, Angela; Seago, Nanette; DePiper, Jill Neumayer – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2022
Asynchronous, online mathematics teacher professional development (PD) was designed to align with research on teacher professional learning as well as to support Communities of Inquiry (e.g., Garrison et al., 2000). The intervention included two actively facilitated formats and a structured independent condition, where facilitation was integrated…

Barno, Erin; Dietiker, Leslie – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2022
This paper explores how a professional learning community (PLC) redesigns high school mathematics lessons towards a shared commitment. We describe the nature of a PLC's collective curricular vision to illuminate how teachers can come to new understandings as a group in order to shift the ways students experience mathematics. Using the curricular…

Elizabeth Wrightsman; Cody L. Patterson – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2023
We investigate teacher beliefs about discourses for equation solving and the challenges these beliefs might pose for the implementation of instructional practices that promote deductive reasoning in algebra. To uncover these beliefs, we recorded three video explanations of solutions to the same linear equation with distinct discursive…

Schwarts, Gil; Stevens, Irma E.; Herbst, Patricio; Brown, Amanda – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2022
In this paper we examine how facilitators' prior experiences as mathematics teachers frame their work when facilitating a practice-based professional development (PD) for the first time. We focus on the experiences of a novice facilitator of StoryCircles, a professional learning process in which teachers collectively script and visualize a…

Talbi, Mohamed T. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2003
This study deals with the demand of a task. A theoretical background shows the difficulty of applying the idea of demand (as established in the literature) to the data. This has been confirmed in the preliminary study of this paper, which deals with the analysis of university examinations. Some factors that affect the demand of a task have been…

McConnell, John W. – 1978
This paper deals with the question of how teacher attitudes emerge as teacher behaviors and the relationships between teacher attitudes toward mathematics, teaching, and students, and teacher behaviors as measured by external observers and pupils. Forty-nine ninth-grade mathematics teachers were the subject of this research. It was observed that…
