CAREER: Advancing Secondary Mathematics Teachers' Quantitative Reasoning

University of Georgia Research Foundation, Inc. (UGARF)
07/15/2014

Advancing Reasoning addresses the lack of materials for teacher education by investigating pre-service secondary mathematics teachers' quantitative reasoning in the context of secondary mathematics concepts including function and algebra. The project extends prior research in quantitative reasoning to develop differentiated instructional experiences and curriculum that support prospective teachers' quantitative reasoning and produce shifts in their knowledge.
