SGER Grant Proposal: Design of DVD Research Reports as Teaching-Learning Tools

DVD研究报告可以通过体现为积极的学习支持，为教师和研究人员带来很难通过书面文本传达的教育学观点的连贯性。这里提出的研究将探索将这类DVD嵌入正在进行的NSF赞助的城市儿童数学思维研究中的设计和技术问题。这一新的研究路线借鉴了在市中心课堂上对学生数学思维的理解取得的实质性进展。此外，该项目将为教师提供传播努力，使他们能够以建设性的方式改变自己的教学。此外，研究人员将能够使用DVD材料来支持新的研究途径。这项研究将生成3个连续版本的DVD，并在每次迭代/版本的观众中进行实地测试。研究的产品包括DVD和该领域进一步工作的设计框架。

DVD research reports can bring coherence to teachers and researchers perspectives on pedagogy that are very difficult to convey in written text, by embodying them as active learning supports. The research proposed here will explore the design and technological issues in making such DVDs imbedded in an ongoing NSF-sponsored research study of urban children's mathematical thinking. This new line of research draws on the substantial progress that was made in understanding of student mathematical thinking in inner city classrooms. Furthermore, this project will allow for dissemination efforts that will reach teachers in ways that allow them to change their own teaching in constructive ways. Additionally, researchers will be able to use the DVD material to support new research avenues. The research will generate 3 successive versions of the DVD with field-testing among audiences with each iteration/version. Products of the research include the DVD's and a design framework for further work in the domain.
