ABSTRACT ESI 92-54485 Ricky Carter Bolt, Beranek, and Newman, Inc. Cambridge, MA Mathematical Inquiry Video Tapes: Tools for Professional Growth This is a 3-year project to develop and disseminate some 10 20- minute video tapes for use in pre- and in-service programs for middle school mathematics teachers. The tapes deal with problems that arise when teachers try to introduce inquiry-based learning into their classrooms, and focus on: (1) the use of technology as an effective tool for supporting student investigations; and (2) the role of the teacher in facilitating student conversations about mathematics. Each tape highlights a particular issue, like: characteristics of inquiry-oriented tasks; management of pair- and small-group work; when to intervene? etc. The tapes are as "unstaged" as possible--featuring real teachers with real students in real classrooms. They are based on pieces of curriculum that PIs of major curriculum projects have identified as being particularly suited for illustrating various aspects of inquiry learning. In addition to the classroom footage, each tape also shows teachers reflecting on the issues illustrated on the tape. The tapes are to be pilot-tested in a variety of settings, including television broadcasts to teachers, regional summer workshops, school-site workshops, etc. A national Advisory Board, as well as an outside evaluator, monitor the development of the tapes throughout the various stages of development--from initial script outlines to raw video footage to pilot-testing and on to the final edited product. The completed packets--consisting of a video tape and appropriate accompanying print material--will be made available to NSF-funded teacher enhancement projects, and to others via EdCo (a consortium of greater Boston school districts)), MCET (the Massachusetts Educational Telecommunication Network, and a private publisher. Cost sharing is $121,600, which is 11% of the total NSF contribution.

摘要 ESI 92-54485 Ricky Carter Bolt，Beranek，and纽曼公司 剑桥桥，马萨诸塞州 数学探究录像带：专业成长的工具 这是一个为期三年的项目，旨在为中学数学教师制作和分发大约10盘20分钟的录像带，用于职前和在职培训。 这些录音带处理了教师试图将探究式学习引入课堂时出现的问题，并侧重于：（1）使用技术作为支持学生调查的有效工具;（2）教师在促进学生关于数学的对话中的作用。 每盘磁带都强调了一个特定的问题，比如：探究型任务的特点;双人和小组工作的管理;什么时候干预？录像带尽可能地“不上演”--在真实的教室里有真实的老师和真实的学生。 它们是根据主要课程计划的主要研究主任认为特别适合说明探究学习的各个方面的课程而编制的。 除了课堂录像外，每盘录像带还展示了教师对录像带上所示问题的反思。 这些磁带将在各种情况下进行试验，包括向教师播放电视节目、区域暑期讲习班、学校现场讲习班等。一个国家咨询委员会以及一名外部评价员在磁带制作的各个阶段-从最初的脚本大纲到原始录像片段，再到试验性试验，最后编辑成成品-监测磁带的制作。 完成的数据包--包括一盘录像带和适当的附带印刷材料--将提供给国家科学基金会资助的教师提高项目，并通过EdCo（大波士顿学区联盟）、MCET（马萨诸塞州教育电信网络）和一家私人出版商提供给其他人。 费用分摊为121，600美元，占NSF捐款总额的11%。
