Alberta Journal of Educational Research, v48 n2 p122-38 Sum 2002
A review of 154 research studies found that mathematics education reform contributed to higher student achievement only when there was substantial implementation of reform. The main obstacle to implementation was teacher beliefs about mathematics teaching. The best method for increasing implementation is sustained inservice teacher education that addresses changes in beliefs as well as practice. (Contains 122 references.) (TD)
