Mathematics Curriculum Materials and Teacher Development

Redaktion: Gueudet, Ghislaine; Trouche, Luc; Pepin, Birgit

Beschreibung

What kinds of curriculum materials do mathematics teachers select and use, and how? This question is complex, in a period of deep evolutions of teaching resources, with the proficiency of online resources in particular. How do teachers learn from these materials, and in which ways do they 'tailor' them for their use and pupil learning? Teachers collect resources, select, transform, share, implement, and revise them. Drawing from the French term « ingénierie documentaire »,we call these processes « documentation ». The literal English translation is « to work with documents », but the meaning it carries is richer. Documentation refers to the complex and interactive ways that teachers work with resources; in-class and out-of-class, individually, but also collectively.

Autor

Ghislaine Gueudet is professor in mathematics didactics. She works at the University of Western Brittany in France. She is co-director of the CREAD (Center for Research on Education, Learning and Didactics). Her research concerns the interactions between teachers and resources (with a specific focus on online resources), and their consequences in terms of professional development. This theme lead her to develop, together with Luc Trouche, a documentational approach to didactics.

Rezensionen

From the reviews:

"This book is clearly intended for mathematics education researchers who investigate the preparation and teaching of K-12 mathematics teachers, it would also be of interest to mathematics teacher educators and curriculum designers. ... The book is organized into four parts - each part has an introductory chapter and is followed by an 'expert's reaction.' ... a worthwhile read for those who are interested in how teachers use a variety of resources, material and non-material, digital and non-digital." (Annie Selden, MAA Reviews, December, 2012)
