Developing Mathematical Proficiency for Elementary Instruction. Advances in STEM Education
Li, Yeping, Ed.; Howe, Roger E., Ed.; Lewis, W. James, Ed.; Madden, James J., Ed.
Advances in STEM Education
The need to improve the mathematical proficiency of elementary teachers is well recognized, and it has long been of interest to educators and researchers in the U.S. and many other countries. But the specific proficiencies that elementary teachers need and the process of developing and improving them remain only partially conceptualized and not well validated empirically. To improve this situation, national workshops were organized at Texas A&M University to generate focused discussions about this important topic, with participation of mathematicians, mathematics educators and teachers. "Developing Mathematical Proficiency for Elementary Instruction" is a collection of articles that grew out of those exciting cross-disciplinary exchanges. "Developing Mathematical Proficiency for Elementary Instruction" is organized to probe the specifics of mathematical proficiency that are important to elementary teachers during two separate but inter-connected professional stages: as pre-service teachers in a preparation program, and as in-service teachers teaching mathematics in elementary classrooms. From this rich and inspiring collection, readers may better understand, and possibly rethink, their own practices and research in empowering elementary teachers mathematically and pedagogically, as educators or researchers.
