Towards Ambitious Instruction in Mathematics: Research Into Practice

3 credits · Graduate

In this course, students learn to turn mathematics education research into practice through the vehicle of lesson design. Students work in collaborative teams consisting of one beginning mathematics teacher in a teaching credential program and one or more doctoral student researchers. Together each team is responsible for designing, justifying, implementing, researching, and re-designing a lesson that seeks to embody one key aspect of the teacher's vision of effective mathematics instruction.
