Connecting Mathematics for Elementary Teachers (CMET) Type II: Dissemination, Enhcancement and Research

数学科学（21）这个项目正在制作、评估和传播大约60个视频，这些视频展示了儿童的数学思维和学习。这些视频将用于面向未来小学教师的数学内容课程，并专门设计用于与由该项目的三位主要研究人员编写的教科书“连接小学教师数学（CMET）”相结合。儿童视频帮助未来的小学教师更好地了解儿童的数学思维，从而支持教师更好地选择教学方法，提高儿童在课堂上的数学学习。这些视频展示了CMET教科书中描述的儿童数学学习研究的各个方面。与这个项目有关的成果正在通过会议报告和为小学教师讲授数学的教员举办的讲习班来传播。这些视频将在网上发布。在这个项目中制作的视频通过让未来的小学教师深入了解他们将要教授的科目如何与儿童的数学思维联系在一起，对他们的数学理解和教学产生了重大影响。这个项目有可能从根本上改变数学教育者培养小学职前教师向儿童教授数学的方式。

Mathematical Sciences (21)This project is creating, evaluating, and disseminating a collection of approximately 60 videos that illustrate children's mathematical thinking and learning. The videos are being used in mathematics content courses for prospective elementary teachers and are specifically designed to be integrated with "Connecting Mathematics for Elementary Teachers (CMET)," a textbook authored by three of the principal investigators on this project. The videos of children are helping prospective elementary teachers better understand children's mathematical thinking, thereby supporting better instructional choices on the part of teachers and improved learning of mathematics by children in their classes. The videos are illustrating aspects of research on children's learning of mathematics that are described in the CMET textbook. Results related to this project are being disseminated through conference presentations and workshops for faculty who teach mathematics for elementary teachers. The videos are being made available on the web.The videos produced in this project are significantly impacting the mathematical understanding and teaching of prospective elementary teachers by providing them with in-depth knowledge of how the subject matter they will be teaching is connected to children's mathematical thinking. This project has the potential to fundamentally change the way mathematics educators prepare elementary pre-service teachers to teach mathematics to children.
