摘要:"Mathematics Classrooms That Promote Understanding synthesizes the implications of research done by the National Center for Research in Mathematical Sciences by integrating two somewhat diverse bodies of scholarly inquiry: the study of teaching and the study of learning mathematics." "This research was organized around content domains and/or continuing issues of education, such as equity and assessment of learning, and was guided by two common goals - defining mathematics content of the K-12 curriculum in light of the changing mathematical needs of citizens for the 21st century, and identifying common components of classrooms that enable students to learn the redefined mathematics with understanding. To accomplish these goals, classrooms in which instruction facilitated the growth of understanding were established or studied. This volume reports and discusses the findings that grew out of this research, and subsequent papers and discussions among the scholars engaged in the endeavor." "Researchers, mathematics supervisors, teachers, policymakers, graduate students, and the general lay public interested in mathematics education will find this book timely and relevant."--Jacket
