What Makes Professional Development Effective? Results From a National Sample of Teachers
TL;DR: The authors used a large-scale empirical comparison of effects of different characteristics of professional development on teachers' learning, and found that content knowledge, opportunities for active learning and coherence with other learning activities significantly affect teacher learning.
Journal ArticleDOI
What Do New Views of Knowledge and Thinking Have to Say About Research on Teacher Learning
Ralph T. Putnam,Hilda Borko +1 more
TL;DR: The authors argue that the shifts in world view that these discussions represent are even more fundamental than the now-historical shift from behaviorist to cognitive views of learning (Shuell, 1986).
Journal ArticleDOI
Learning to Think Mathematically: Problem Solving, Metacognition, and Sense Making in Mathematics (Reprint):
TL;DR: A review of the literature on problem solving and metacognition can be found in this article, where the authors outline and substantiate a broad conceptualization of what it means to think mathematically, summarize the literature relevant to understanding mathematical thinking and problem solving, and point to new directions in research, development and assessment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scaffolding and Achievement in Problem-Based and Inquiry Learning: A Response to Kirschner, Sweller, and Clark (2006)
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that problem-based learning (PBL) and inquiry learning (IL) are powerful and effective models of learning and that they employ scaffolding extensively, thereby reducing the cognitive load and allowing students to learn in complex domains.
Principles and Standards for School Mathematics: A Guide for Mathematicians
TL;DR: This article provides some background about NCTM and the standards, the process of development, efforts to gather input and feedback, and ways in which feedback from the mathematics community influenced the document.
