Teaching Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching (K-8): Adapting Local Materials for Use in Diverse Institutions and Settings

《为教学而教授数学知识（K-8）：调整当地材料以适应不同的机构和环境》建立在广泛的基础工作的基础上，以识别、表征和测量“教学用数学知识”（MKT），使K-8学校的教师能够成功地提高学生在数学学习方面的成就。该项目开发、实地测试、制作和传播一套三个大型学习单元，这些单元合起来是未来K-8教师的一学期课程。这些材料也可以单独整合到本科数学内容或方法课程中，供未来的中小学教师使用。该项目通过建立称为“教师规划小组”的协作结构来促进教师学习，该小组支持教师知识和技能的发展，以成功地实施这些材料。此外，还利用在线社区为教师的数学教育专业知识库做出贡献。该项目的传播有助于为在全国范围内开展MKT的教与学研究奠定基础，从而为教师数学教育的重大创新和评估其整体效果奠定基础。

Mathematical Sciences (21)The "Teaching Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching (K-8): Adapting Local Materials for Use in Diverse Institutions and Settings" builds on extensive foundational work in identifying, characterizing, and measuring the "mathematical knowledge for teaching" (MKT) that enables and empowers K-8 school teachers to successfully improve their student's achievements in learning mathematics. The project develops, field-tests, produces, and disseminates a set of three large learning-units which are collectively a one-term course curriculum for future K-8 teachers. These materials can also be integrated separately into undergraduate mathematics content or methods courses for future elementary and middle school teachers. The project promotes faculty learning through the establishment of collaborative structures called "instructor planning groups" which support the development of faculty knowledge and skills for successful implementation of the materials. Additionally, an online community is used to contribute to the professional knowledge-base for mathematics education of teachers. The dissemination of this project helps build the foundation for launching research on teaching and learning of MKT nationally, thereby setting the stage for major innovations in the mathematical education of teachers and the evaluation of its overall effects.
