Using TIMSS Videos to Improve Learning of Mathematics: A Conference to be Convened at the Wingspread Conference Center, Racine, Wisconsin, summer, 2004

理论：实践研究这个项目的主要目标--使用TIMSS视频改善数学学习--旨在支持将高质量的研究成果整合到数学教育实践中，努力使数学课程更易于管理，对教师职业连续体系的所有成员--数学家、数学教育工作者、K-12数学教育工作者和专业开发人员--有用。实际会议：将通过在威斯康星州拉辛的温斯普夫会议中心举行的为期四天的工作会议来实现目标，会议将在威斯康星州拉辛的温斯普夫会议中心举行，期间有24名数学家、高等教育数学教育工作者、K-12数学教育工作者将分析公开发布的28节数学课。通过团队合作，该小组将在确定说明高质量和连贯的数学教学和学习的视频剪辑方面达成共识。在工作会议期间收集的数据将用于编写一份指南，暂定名称为“TIMSS 1999视频学习指南：数学”，以配合TIMSS 1999公开发行的数学课。

The Theory: Research into PracticeThe primary objective of this project--Using TIMSS Videos to Improve Learning of Mathematics-- is to support the integration of high-quality research findings into mathematics educational practice by working to make the mathematics lessons more manageable and useful to all members of the teacher professional continuum: mathematicians, IHE mathematics educators, K-12 mathematics educators and professional developers.The Actual Meeting: Who, What, When and WhereThe objective will be accomplished through a four-day work session at the Wingspread Conference Center in Racine, Wisconsin, during which 24 mathematicians, higher education mathematics educators, and K-12 mathematics educators will analyze the 28 public release mathematics lessons. Working in teams, the group will come to consensus in identifying video clips that illustrate quality and coherent mathematics teaching and learning. The data collected during the work session will be used to develop a guide, tentatively called the "TIMSS 1999 Video Study Guide: Mathematics," to accompany the TIMSS 1999 public release mathematics lessons.
