Fostering a Stance of Inquiry Among Teachers: Professional Development in Mathematics Education

By Davenport, Linda Ruiz & Morse, Amy

New elementary curricula offer considerable promise in meeting new goals for student learning. These curricula represent a dramatic departure from more traditional textbooks. These new curricula, however, represent only one component of what is needed. New forms of instruction will become broadly available to students only if a substantial portion of the current teaching force transforms its current pedagogical practice. This transformation will require teacher professional development and support.
